ATLANTA, Nov. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Streamline
Health Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: STRM), provider of integrated
solutions, technology-enabled services and analytics supporting
revenue cycle optimization for healthcare enterprises, today
announced it signed a contract on October
26 with Citizens Medical Center in Victoria, Texas for Streamline Health's
eValuator™, its new cloud-based automated pre-bill coding analysis
technology.
Streamline Health is leading an industry movement to improve
healthcare providers' financial performance by moving mid-to-late
revenue cycle interventions upstream, optimizing coding accuracy
for every patient encounter prior to bill submission. By
improving coding accuracy before billing, providers can reduce lost
revenue, mitigate overbill risk, and reduce denials and days in
A/R. This enables providers to turn unpredictable revenue cycles
into dynamic revenue streams.
"As a not-for-profit hospital serving South Texas for more than 50 years, we pride
ourselves on delivering outstanding, compassionate patient care and
on being able to grow to meet the demands of the communities we
serve," stated Duane L. Woods Jr.,
CFO, Citizens Medical Center. "That's why we are always
looking for ways to help us improve our financial performance, and
we believe Streamline Health's new eValuator pre-bill coding
analysis technology will help us do that. By analyzing every
coded record before it's billed, we can make sure that we
are requesting the correct amount– being fairly reimbursed for all
care delivered to our patients—no more and no
less."
"We are pleased to add another new Texas-based client such as Citizens Medical
Center to our roster of new eValuator users," stated David Sides, President and Chief Executive
Officer, Streamline Health. "Every healthcare provider we serve
today is looking for the best ways to ensure financial viability,
and one way is to make sure they are getting fully and fairly
reimbursed for all care delivery under today's increasingly complex
payment guidelines. Our cloud-based, pre-bill coding analysis
technology enables Citizens to check each and every patient bill
before it goes out the door, ensuring that they don't under
bill or over bill payors. Revenue integrity is the name of
the game, and we are committed to helping healthcare providers
throughout the country to achieve better financial results through
improved coding accuracy."
