FAYETTEVILLE, Ark., Nov. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Practice communications management company Updox and electronic health record solutions provider, SOAPware Inc., have shaped a strategic alliance in order to improve health information exchange. The two will work together to provide SOAPware EHR customers with a fully integrated, bi-directional, electronic faxing and document management solution.
