Integration will Enhance Claims Accuracy for All eMDs Practice Management, Electronic Health Record and Revenue Cycle Management Platforms

eMDs, a leading provider of electronic health record (EHR) and practice management (PM) software and revenue cycle management (RCM) services to over 63,000 providers announced an exclusive partnership with Alpha II, LLC, a leading developer of software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions that support healthcare reimbursement. Through the terms of the agreement, eMDs will integrate Alpha II’s ClaimStaker™ clinical claim and encounter scrubbing solution into all eMDs EHR, practice management and revenue cycle management platforms. Through EHR integrations, Alpha II is being embedded within the clinical workflow allowing for real-time remediation of errors or omissions.

“Upgrading claim scrubbing in the eMDs product portfolio is an important part of the ongoing investment in our platform modernization strategy that makes a real difference to our customers,” stated Derek Pickell, eMDs’ CEO. “The partnership with Alpha II shows eMDs’ ongoing modernization investments across our software and services portfolio. With over 20 years providing RCM services to healthcare organizations, large and small, now known as eMDs Aria Health Services, we fully understand the value of tight scrubbing integration when it comes to dealing with the complexity of a myriad of payer rules in order to ensure claims are paid the first time ensuring a lower cost to collect.”

eMDs has already integrated Alpha II into its proprietary Aria RCM technology-enabled solutions, and will also add scrubbing into the other eMDs’ software portfolio solutions including Medisoft, Lytec, Solution Series, Practice Partner, and Aprima.

“Alpha II is excited to continue its partnership with eMDs, as we work to help their customer base reimagine reimbursement with the most comprehensive clinical claim and encounter scrubbing solution available on the market,” said Timothy Mills, chief growth officer, Alpha II.”ClaimStaker will enable eMDs healthcare providers to improve claim validity and accuracy, deliver positive cash flow, maximize reimbursement, and save valuable staff time through denial prevention.”

Alpha II ClaimStaker incorporates a full suite of edits for professional and institutional claims to improve accuracy based upon a foundation of thousands of coding and billing requirements. ClaimStaker does this by verifying claims and encounters from a payer’s perspective and replicating Medicare’s claim adjudication system including pricing calculations. It is designed to be deployed across multiple workflows within the revenue cycle allowing for corrections prior to filing. ClaimStaker’s content database is constantly being updated and improved by their dedicated team of experts, to provide the most in-depth rules engine available.
