BLIS - Improving Access to Surgery

Complication Protection

Introduction to BLIS

The BLIS Advantage: Cash-Pay Patient Growth With Financial Protection

BLIS is a highly specialized, privately held company whose mission is to improve access to surgery. BLIS provides specialty products which address two of the main concerns for potential weight loss surgery patients; how to pay for surgery and what happens in the event of a complication related to surgery.

BLIS has created an insurance product, BLISCare, to address the surgical risks of complications following weight loss surgery; and BLISPay, a patient finance solution in partnership with Chase Health Advance. BLISPay Lending helps the patient pay for surgery and BLISCare pays the providers on a direct basis according to pre-neogtiated terms for covered complication care and treatment. The patients’ financial worries are addressed, and the hospital doesn't have to worry about the extra hassles of collecting for covered complication-related bills. The peace of mind from knowing they are protected attracts patients and helps increase access to surgery.

BLIS also provides marketing services to assist practices to grow their case volumes and profitability.

BLIS has covered over 1,700 cases and taken care of over $4 million dollars on behalf of covered patient’s complication related care. BLIS has over 110 active surgeons across the country offering BLISCare complication protection to their patients.
