ATLANTA, March 21, 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 with Washington Regional Medical Center. The 425-bed facility located in Fayetteville, Arkansas, contracted for Streamline Health eValuator, our 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 revenue leakage, mitigate overbill risk, and reduce denials and days in A/R. This enables providers to turn unpredictable revenue cycles into dynamic revenue streams.
"We were looking for an innovative new way to help us improve our revenue integrity and came across Streamline Health's eValuator," stated Ashley Moser, RHIT, Director of Revenue Integrity, Washington Regional Medical Center. "Our goal in deploying eValuator is to improve our coding accuracy by analyzing every patient record before we bill them. An analysis of some of our previously billed records clearly showed opportunities we could improve upon, both in capturing more revenue for the care we had provided, and in helping us mitigate revenue risk."
"We are pleased to begin this new relationship with Washington Regional and are committed to helping them improve their financial performance through enhanced revenue integrity," stated David Sides, President and Chief Executive Officer, Streamline Health. "The potential results we presented to them using our eValuator technology, I believe, helped make it easy to select Streamline as their partners in this initiative. We showed them how to view eValuator as having a positive return on revenue as opposed to a return on investment. When results like that are achieved, eValuator pays for itself within a matter of months."
