Patients cancel over $7.50? That’s a value problem let’s fix it.

We unpack why tiny surcharges expose a value gap, what Medicare actually allows (no add-on fees for covered services), and when giving 25–40% to a platform like Luna can make sense for patient acquisition, RCM, and audit risk. We also debate Venmo/Zelle to pay for a TENS unit vs platform billing, Part B vs Medicare Advantage realities, and a practical hybrid strategy to keep margins and compliance intact. Not legal advice check your contracts and payer rules.
