PARO, now part of Waystar

PARO is a presumptive charity model and screening process that helps hospitals deliver charity care to the medically needy patients they serve. Presumptive charity is charity care of last resort extended in the absence of additional information from unresponsive patients. PARO pioneered a classification system to triage accounts for presumptive charity and extended eligibility services which are otherwise routinely lost to bad debt helping hospitals with community benefit.
