Payment Flexibility (Tier 1 Response to Budget Concerns)

Section titled “Payment Flexibility (Tier 1 Response to Budget Concerns)”

If HPCSA says: “R5M-R12M is too much upfront”

Response A: Phased Payment Plan

Total: R6M (mid-range scenario)
Spread over: 24 months
Monthly: R250,000
Payment Schedule:
- Month 1-8: R300k/month (implementation phase, 8 months)
- Month 9-24: R225k/month (operations phase, 16 months)
Benefits:
- No large capital expenditure
- Aligned with fiscal cycles
- Cashflow-friendly
- Cancel after 12 months if not satisfied (with 90-day notice)
- Budget-friendly for professional councils

Response B: Outcomes-Based Pricing

Base Fee: R2.5M (system setup, infrastructure, 12-board configuration)
Performance Fee: R40 per practitioner achieving CPD compliance
Example Calculation:
- Current baseline compliance: [TBD based on HPCSA data]
- Target compliance: 85% of 90,000 = 76,500 compliant practitioners
- Improvement: [Dependent on baseline, assume 30,000 improvement]
- Performance Fee: 30,000 × R40 = R1.2M
Total Year 1: R2.5M + R1.2M (performance) = R3.7M
(HPCSA only pays for proven compliance improvement)
Why This Works:
- Risk shifted to iSu Technologies
- HPCSA pays for measurable outcomes, not promises
- High confidence in our platform (education sector 83.6% success rate)
- Patient safety benefits from verified practitioner competence

Response C: Board-by-Board Phased Rollout

Phase 1 (Months 1-4): 3 Pilot Boards
- Boards: Medical & Dental, Psychology, Occupational Therapy
- ~25,000 practitioners (27% of total)
- ~80 providers
- Investment: R1.5M
Phase 2 (Months 5-8): 4 Mid-Size Boards
- Boards: Physiotherapy, Radiography, Emergency Care, Environmental Health
- ~35,000 practitioners
- ~120 providers
- Investment: R2M
Phase 3 (Months 9-12): Remaining 5 Boards
- Boards: Optometry, Speech & Language, Nutrition, etc.
- ~30,000 practitioners
- ~300 providers
- Investment: R2.5M
Total: R6M (same cost, phased risk)
Benefits:
- Prove value in Phase 1 before expanding
- Budget across 3 fiscal periods
- Scale infrastructure incrementally
- Early wins build momentum and internal champions
- Board-specific learning applied to later phases
