PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y., Sept. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Sandata Technologies, LLC, a leading national provider of information technology solutions to the home healthcare industry, today announced that it has launched Santrax Agency Management as its cornerstone offering in the company's suite of information technology solutions serving the home healthcare industry.

According to Jeff Silverman, Sandata's Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, "With the changes in Healthcare Reform, the increased governmental focus on reducing fraud, abuse and waste, and the continual financial challenges for home healthcare agencies, Sandata is investing the resources of the company to enhance our focus by providing an end-to-end continuum of solutions for our customers."

The centerpiece of this investment effort is the release of Sandata's next generation Home Healthcare Agency Management Solution, Santrax Agency Management (SAM). SAM is a powerful, comprehensive solution that automates agency processes and provides end-to-end functionality for all key clinical, financial and operational processes.  All critical agency functions are automated within SAM, including advanced scheduling and the ability to bill for and manage multiple payor sources, including Medicaid, Medicare, Private Duty and Hospice. SAM is delivered in a hosted SaaS model to minimize our customers' need to support and maintain the solution. SAM is designed to be implemented rapidly, with quick time to value for our customers, and with little to no upfront costs. With simple monthly per-user costs, the solution is extremely cost effective.

The SAM family of solutions also includes solutions that integrate to both SAM and other 3rd party Health Information Systems to provide incremental value to Home Healthcare Agency clients. They include Santrax Advantage, which enables agencies to convert paper assessments to electronically edited submissions; Santrax Analyzer, which provides next generation analytics technology to aggregate and report on data across multiple source systems; Santrax Point-of-Care technology, which includes both the Santrax Clinical PDA, delivered on a Blackberry and Santrax CareTab, delivered on a standard laptop or tablet to automate the process of clinical documentation in the field.

Sandata also enhances the SAM product line with its Santrax Performance Advisors (PA) consulting service. PA's industry experts not only help Home Healthcare Agencies improve clinical outcomes and increase operational and financial performance, but also provide them with the skills to drive outcomes long after the engagement concludes.

The next generation of SAM family of solutions joins Sandata's proven portfolio of healthcare solutions, including the Santrax Telephony (STx) solution, Sandata's market-leading Electronic Visit Verification, and the Santrax Payor Management (SPM) solution, Sandata's fully integrated platform that enables our State and Managed Care Organization partners to reduce fraud, waste and abuse, and increase visit and billing compliance at the provider level of home healthcare services.
