LOUISVILLE, Ky., Dec. 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ZirMed®, a leading provider of Web-based revenue cycle management technology solutions for healthcare providers, today announced it was ranked #1 for direct vendors and received the highest score of all the measured clearinghouse services rated in KLAS' 2011 report "Ambulatory Clearinghouse 2011: Dollars, Sense & 5010 Readiness."
"The highest-performing clearinghouse vendor in this study, ZirMed continues to deliver an excellent-quality product coupled with outstanding service levels," said Mark Wagner author of the report. "ZirMed customers rated the functional strength of their denials management, online editing, normalized payer reporting, and claims tracking/status software the highest of any vendor in this study."
ZirMed solutions received the highest or tied for the highest score in 10 of 15 measured categories, including overall satisfaction. Such a broad base of performance ratings is the same as last year's clearinghouse report, where ZirMed also led the field in two-thirds of measured categories. Significantly, this year's report marks the second year in a row where 100% interviewed clients said that they would repurchase their ZirMed solutions.
