Top healthcare system migrates to direct 3-year licensing agreement and adds custom Correspondence Workflow
CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: STRM), a market leading provider of document workflow solutions for hospitals, announced today that University of Virginia Health System has extended its licensing agreement and has also contracted for the company’s Correspondence Workflow. The health system is migrating to a direct license with the Company from a license through a Streamline Health strategic partner. Under the terms of the agreement, the healthcare system will license the products for a term of at least 3 years.
Ranking among the nation’s top teaching hospitals, University of Virginia Health System includes a 570-bed Magnet® hospital, level I trauma center, nationally recognized cancer and heart centers and primary and specialty clinics throughout Central Virginia. Under the terms of the new agreement, the health system will continue to license Streamline Health’s accessANYware®, FolderView™, and Financial Screening Workflow, and adds a new custom Correspondence Workflow. This custom workflow will give the system the ability to manage large volumes of mail through the required patient financial services cycles, while keeping an electronic trail of all activity via audit and reporting capabilities. The workflow will also accelerate the billing process by reducing follow-up turnaround time, and improve accounts receivables.
“We are pleased that University of Virginia Health System is renewing their license with Streamline Health as well as expanding the relationship with a new custom workflow for their patient financial services department,” said Robert Watson, president and chief executive officer of Streamline Health. “We appreciate the confidence they have had in our products and services, and the new workflow will increase both accessibility of information for staff and patient satisfaction through timelier correspondence processing.”
“As a long time user of Streamline Health solutions, we have relied on Streamline Health for our document management needs and are excited to migrate to a direct licensing agreement with them,” said Brent McGhee, interim director of patient financial services at University of Virginia Health System. “We are also excited to have Streamline Health work with us to build a custom Correspondence Workflow that will help us move closer to our goal of providing a seamless, enterprise-wide document management system for our staff, and faster, more efficient systems for our patients.”
