RelayHealth Financial Products Attain CMMI Level 2 Appraisal

Today RelayHealth Financial announced that its RelayClearance^TM, RelayAssurance^TM, RelayAnaltyics^TM and RelayPayer Connectivity Services^TM have achieved a Level 2 (L2) appraisal rating under CMMI Institute's Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI).

This is the latest in a series of accomplishments recently announced by RelayHealth Financial and related to the company's commitment to outstanding software quality and service levels. In October, in the largest opinion poll ever undertaken on revenue cycle management (RCM) software, providers named RelayHealth Financial number one in customer satisfaction. The company was also ranked the number one revenue cycle solution overall for hospital systems, integrated delivery networks (IDNs) and accountable care organizations. In November, RelayHealth Financial announced it was first to market with ICD-10 readiness and end-to-end testing a full year ahead of the U.S. government deadline.

CMMI is a process improvement training and appraisal program administered by Carnegie Mellon University. An L2 appraisal indicates the organization is performing at a "managed" level. This means processes are planned and executed in accordance with policy; employ skilled people with adequate resources to produce controlled outputs; involve relevant stakeholders; are monitored, controlled, and reviewed; and are evaluated for adherence to their process descriptions.

"CMMI Level 2 appraisal requires a significant investment of time and resources, and that's an investment in our customers," said Matt Larsen, vice president of Product Management for RelayHealth. "We have documented software engineering best practices in place which support our mission to provide the industry's best customer experience. It helps us accelerate time to market, improve software quality, reduce rework, and free up time that's best used to solve customer needs. We believe our CMMI L2 appraisal, the Black Book study results, and our ICD-10 readiness and testing program are shining examples of what can be achieved when you always put customers first."
