The Billian's HealthDATA Portal, the company's flagship healthcare sales and marketing database, boasts over 3,000 data points on more than 40,000 healthcare facilities across the U.S. The HealthLink partnership will bring information on over 335,000 physicians - representing almost 200 specialties - to the online Portal platform, offering vendors a one-stop-shop for comprehensive intelligence on U.S. healthcare accounts. The new data will also document more than 375,000 physician affiliations with more than 6,700 unique hospitals. Physician data email offerings will be made available.

A recent review of physician referrals' impact on inpatient Medicare claims reveals that MDs account for nearly 50 percent of the hospital revenue stream. "As key stakeholders in the restructuring of care-delivery models and the move towards Meaningful Use, physicians offer a wealth of insight into the needs and initiatives currently playing out in provider settings," says Don Graham, General Manager of Billian's HealthDATA. "We view our partnership with HealthLink Dimensions as an excellent opportunity to help the vendors we work with gain insight into the physicians working on the front lines of healthcare."

Integrating hospital-affiliated physician data into the Portal's existing Hospital IT, financial standing, and clinical outcome and patient rating data sets offers the industry an unparalleled view of U.S. health organizations.
