Stockell Healthcare Systems and ZirMed Team Up to Change the Claims Management Game
Automated, Integrated Solution Greatly Reduces the Need for Manual Claims Scrubbing
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Stockell Healthcare Systems, Inc. is pleased to announce a business partnership with ZirMed, a nationally recognized provider of revenue management solutions for the healthcare industry.
Under the new partnership, Stockell Healthcare Systems has developed an integrated process with ZirMed's Claims Management software solution that when implemented with its own InsightCS® Revenue Cycle Information System (RCIS) allows healthcare service providers to replace the traditional "bill in one system, correct claims in a different system" approach with an automated process.
Through innovative features included in the automated process, any failed claims edits and rejections are routed back to the InsightCS® system's Patient Billing solution, where they can be addressed and corrected just once without the same issues reoccurring for subsequent claims submissions.
"This approach is truly groundbreaking when compared to other offerings in the healthcare marketplace today," stated Rick Stockell, President of Stockell Healthcare Systems. "We fully anticipate seeing a significant increase in productivity and a positive impact on what is currently being spent by the hospitals in regard to claims submission fees."
Also, under the partnership, Stockell Healthcare Systems will offer InsightCS® clients a full EDI solution suite including eligibility, electronic remittance, virtual credit/debit card processing, patient invoice e-delivery, lockbox services, and on-line patient portal access for billing inquiries, online bill pay, and management of automated payment plans.
The first joint Stockell Healthcare Systems-ZirMed client to take advantage of this new offering is Emerus Emergency Hospitals based in The Woodlands, Texas. Emerus' five emergency hospitals serve patients in both Dallas and Houston, with their implementation of InsightCS® and the new ZirMed Claims Management automated solution integration being a significant part of a major data management initiative designed to benefit patients and payers while streamlining the organization's records and documentation processes.
