HealthPort® Provides the Largest Electronic Gateway Distribution to esMD with HIHPro™

HealthPort^®, a leader in the compliant exchange of protected health information today announced the addition of HIHPro™, designed to deliver government audit requests electronically to auditors via Electronic Submission of Medical Documentation (esMD).

Electronic delivery with HIHPro reduces costs through fast, secure electronic submissions and streamlines workflow with electronic delivery of receipt confirmations. Decreasing turnaround times and virtually eliminating technical denials is now a reality by delivering audit requests directly to CMS's esMD portal in hours, rather than days with paper delivery. Automatic tracking and delivery confirmation combine to create a seamless workflow for integrated audit management - provding additional time for overall facility project planning.

"In 2012, more than $6 billion were targeted for audits, it was a natural fit to utilize HealthPort Connex™ our vast distribution network that includes direct RAC connections as well as esMD and our audit management technology to help our members' facilities protect revenue and reduce turnaround times," said Michael Labedz, president and chief executive officer of HealthPort.

As part of HealthPort's government audit solution suite and powered by HealthPort Connex™, - our vast distribution network of traditional and electronic connections combine for the most secure, HIPAA-compliant capture, process, and delivery workflow. No matter what level of technology and workflow users want to apply to their audit process, HealthPort offers a choice of solutions. With an unmatched capacity to handle the smallest to the largest number of requests, HealthPort Connex processes the same number of requests in one day that most facilities get in one year. Health executives can now choose from three solutions to address government audits and select the level of audit management that fits the specific needs of their facility. These new offerings are just one more way HealthPort makes audits more manageable with integrated release of information services that continue to surpass industry standards.
