Product updates
The biggest updates across the CIVIE platform, newest first. Follow CIVIE on LinkedIn for smaller improvements as they ship.
- CIVIE Voice
Billing voice agent: secure pay links, every account, more requests
CIVIE VoiceWhat’s new
- Pay by link, never by card. The agent texts the caller a secure pay link that needs no login. It never takes a card number over the phone.
- Every account, totaled. For patients with more than one account, the agent finds them all and gives one combined balance.
- More requests handled. Callers can add workers’ comp, auto or lien insurance, request a refund or ask for an eligibility check.
- Check payments. The agent reads the mailing address from the caller’s own statement and can text it on request.
Other improvements
- The agent always verifies the caller’s identity before discussing anything on the account.
- Platform & Security
Multi-factor authentication for every password sign-in
Trust Center- MFA at account setup. Anyone who signs in to CIVIE with a password sets up multi-factor authentication when they first create their account.
- Single sign-on unchanged. Users who sign in through their organization’s identity provider keep that provider’s MFA.
- Clearer invitations. Invitation emails now show MFA as a setup step, so new users know what to expect.
- Analytics
Executive AR and charge integrity dashboards

Text message consent tracked by purpose
Radiology Information System- Consent per purpose. Each message purpose, such as billing or appointments, has its own consent record, and text messages are only sent when consent for that purpose is on file.

- Attachments in email. Emails sent through CIVIE can now carry attachments.
- Clearer delivery errors. Failed sends return specific error codes, so staff can see why a message didn’t go out.
- RCM
Void and refund card payments from the ledger
