QuadraMed Announces Quantim Workflow Solution
17 Dezembro 2009 - 1:00PM
Business Wire
QuadraMed® Corporation (NASDAQ:QDHC), a leading provider of
healthcare information technologies and services that help turn
quality care into positive financial outcomes, today announced the
general availability of Quantim® Workflow, the newest addition to
its suite of Quantim Health Information Management (HIM) solutions.
Quantim Workflow is a scalable solution that enables single and
multi-facility hospitals to automate the distribution and
allocation of coding, compliance and other HIM work assignments,
which can lead to increased productivity and reduced operational
costs. Fox Chase Cancer Center, based in Philadelphia, is the
initial facility to go live with QuadraMed’s web-native Quantim
Workflow solution.
“Within two months of implementing Quantim Workflow, we reduced
the level of outpatient bill holds related to claims coding by 73
percent, which led to a 62 percent reduction in accounts receivable
(AR) days,” said Jackie Desiato, coding director, Fox Chase Cancer
Center (FCCC). “The QuadraMed system has streamlined our operations
by identifying and addressing coding and billing bottlenecks,
prioritizing coding assignments, and assigning our highest dollar
and complex cases to our most skilled coders.”
Quantim Workflow automatically distributes assignments and
documents to client-defined worklists, enabling healthcare
organizations to accurately distribute work, and leverage advanced
coding skills through selective assignment of work items.
Additionally, Quantim Workflow provides healthcare organizations
with productivity and aging reports, as well as comprehensive audit
trails, for expanded coder accountability related to workload
quantity and quality.
“QuadraMed’s Workflow solution, combined with the rules and
exception queue, enables our facility to present the outpatient
coding staff with new work every day. By streamlining our coder
workflow, we eliminated the need to look at the same accounts over
and over again and reduced the duplicate examinations of cases
already coded that had not yet dropped from the paper report. This
leap in productivity helps us to maintain current coder staffing
levels and effectively allocate their time to exceptions or higher
priority cases,” added Desiato.
“Quantim® Workflow helps enhance and accelerate revenue cycle
management processes and is an ideal add-on application for clients
using Quantim Coding,” said Duncan W. James, QuadraMed's President
and CEO. “By driving greater operational and administrative
efficiencies, this solution can directly impact the bottom line of
healthcare providers – helping to ensure long-term viability.”
The QuadraMed Quantim Workflow solution integrates with the
entire suite of Quantim solutions, which include: coding,
compliance, electronic document management, correspondence
management for release of information, chart completion, and
electronic signature.
