EMERYVILLE, Calif., July 23, 2009 – MedeAnalytics, a leading provider of healthcare performance management solutions, and Financial Healthcare Systems, LLC (FHS) have signed a partnership agreement in which MedeAnalytics will market the FHSClearQuoteTM solution as part of an integrated suite of Patient Access Services. The joint solution, currently being implemented at several large health systems, will help hospitals improve point-of-service collection strategies by providing accurate out-of-pocket payment estimates. The software bases those estimates on historical claims data, third-party contract terms and insurance benefits information.
“‘Understanding patient payment obligations prior to service is essential to streamlining the revenue cycle,’ said Mike Gallagher, chief executive officer of MedeAnalytics. ‘We are very pleased to partner with FHS to enhance our suite of Patient Access Services. FHS is a best-of-breed solution with deep expertise and technology to support credible patient estimates.’
"‘FHS has dedicated four years to creating and testing our innovative ClearQuote product,’ said Tim Estes, founder and chief executive officer of FHS. ‘Partnering with a recognized market leader in revenue cycle solutions like MedeAnalytics is a sure way to impact the patient experience across hundreds of hospitals.’
"‘Both companies are focused on improving the efficiency of patient access by using data more intelligently,’ said B.C. Ziegler and Company's Managing Director Neil Borg, who played a key role in defining the partnership. ‘The joint solutions offered by MedeAnalytics and FHS should meaningfully impact a hospital's bottom line.’"
