GHN-Online, the healthcare industry’s leading provider of real-time, revenue-cycle management solutions, and Amkai, a developer of comprehensive information management systems for outpatient surgery providers, announced today an alliance to integrate and promote GHN-Online’s clean-claims technologies with Amkai’s enterprise management and electronic medical record solutions. The announcement was made at the ASCs 2008 Conference (May 14 – 17), the ambulatory surgery center industry’s premier event where GHN-Online and Amkai are exhibiting (GHN Booth #442 and Amkai Booth #449).
“Some of our ASC customers have been looking for an alternative information system solution that touches all aspects of healthcare delivery with a higher yield of return and superior functionality. Our partnership with Amkai will deliver on both fronts,” explained Azadeh Farahmand, CEO of GHN-Online. “Moreover, we believe the Amkai team keenly understands all the pain points of ASCs, surgical hospitals, and affiliated physician and surgeon practices. Their commitment to customer service is unmatched.”
Under the agreement, the two companies will build upon the existing interfaces between their core products and integrate the latest version of AmkaiEnterprise™, a next-generation administrative and clinical software suite, with GHN’s Visum™ for real-time, end-to-end transaction processing. Visum is a revenue-cycle management solution that blends the right claims scrubbing and submission technologies with predictive analytic tools to streamline claims processing and accelerate remittance.
“It is gratifying to be recognized by an industry leader such as GHN,” added Don Fallati, senior vice president, marketing for Amkai. “Our companies share a vision of streamlining operations and boosting profitability for ASCs through end-to-end electronic information management. Working with GHN will help us offer customers complete automation and paperless processing from patient scheduling through claims processing. We believe such solutions are increasingly demanded by the market.”
