This revolutionary solution is structured to empower healthcare organization with relevant, timely cost data in an effort to help users quickly identify where margin improvements can be made, which can result in more affordable, better quality care.

"Reimbursement models are continuously evolving, and it is paramount that healthcare organizations know the true cost of providing care down to patient-level activities, such as procedures and lab tests – to make more informed decisions."
