Q:How can I make a payment using the ePayments service?
A:You need to have access to the Internet. You do not need to be enrolled in the service to be able to make a payment. If you are not enrolled in the system, you must have your Patient Account Number in order to make a payment.
Q:What is an appropriate browser?
A:We use 128-bit encryption to make your information unreadable as it passes over the Internet.
Therefore, we strongly recommend that you use the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer or Firefox.
If you need a newer version of Microsoft Internet Explorer, you can download it by going to:
http://www.microsoft.com/ie/downloads/default.mspx
If you need a newer version of Firefox, you can download it by going to:
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
Q:Why are only some versions of browsers supported?
A:To help ensure that your confidential financial information is protected in transit, we encrypt all messages between your browser and this service. Some browser versions do not support the needed levels of encryption.
Q:How secure is my sensitive banking information and personal information? How can I know that this information will not be intercepted?
A:The
Sservice uses the following security features:
- SSL - We use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) that ensures your connection and information is secure
- Encryption - We strictly enforce 128-bit encryption security levels for users accessing this service. All users accessing this service must ensure that their Web browsers are set to enable 128-bit encryption.
- Automatic Sign Out - We automatically sign you out after 20 minutes of inactivity.
Q:How do I know when a secure session has been created?
A:Most of the supported browsers will give you a message box stating when you are going into a secure session. Internet Explorer and Firefox use a small padlock icon on the bottom right side of the browser window. When there is a secure session in place, the padlock will appear locked. Another indication that your browser is operating in secure mode can be found in the web site address. The address will begin with (http:) in standard, non-secure mode and with (https:) in secure mode. The 's' in 'https' stands for secure.
Q:What are my obligations to help maintain secure transactions with the
service?
A:You are responsible for not giving out your bank account information, bank routing information, or account information. You also must be sure that you are using an appropriate browser. Be sure to close your browser immediately after you are finished transacting your payment(s).
Q:When setting up my payment method, where can I find my bank's routing transit number and checking account number?
A:The routing transit number can be found on the lower left hand side of your check. The checking account number is to the right of the routing number. An illustration is provided when adding or modifying a bank account in Payment Methods.
Q:How can I stop the paper bill from being mailed to me when my account is due?
A:You must be enrolled in the ePayments Service in order to stop paper bills from arriving in the mail.
