FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
October 22, 2009Alpha II Announces Contract with Meditec.com
Real-life clinical scenarios will now be used to enhance Alpha II’s user manual as well as Meditec’s coding and compliance training program
MONTGOMERY, Ala. and SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – October 22, 2009 – Alpha II co-developer Unicor Medical, Inc., a leader in healthcare coding, compliance and reimbursement and Meditec.com, a provider of online learning solutions have reached an agreement to incorporate Alpha II’s CodingSystem application into Meditec’s coding training program, as well as formalizing its value-add reseller relationship. In addition, Meditec has incorporated real-life clinical scenarios and coding exercises into the Alpha II training manual to enhance the learning experience of new Alpha II users.
“I recall with great fondness working with Peter Tanaka, a former (now deceased and sorely missed) executive of Unicor Medical,” said Jari Davis, CEO of Meditec.com. “Peter and I had many in-depth conversations about coding issues and trends, which helped to better position our respective companies for success in this changing landscape.”
“Alpha II’s partner relationships have always been of vital importance to our organization,” said Stuart Newsome, vice president, business development of Unicor Medical, one of the software developers behind the Alpha II cobranded solution. “We’ve been committed to working closely with Meditec for many years now, and their use of our CodingSystem application will enhance their coding and compliance training even further, allowing both companies to better serve their respective customers.”
Davis added: “We believe in a synergistic relationship with our integration partners, and our internal experts carefully research and test all medical information management offerings until we are confident enough to recommend them to our customers. The Unicor Medical Easy Coder ICD-9CM book and related Alpha II software have always been of the highest quality.”
In 1999, Meditec.com began using Unicor Medical’s Easy Coder ICD-9CM and has become an early adopter of the Alpha II software, both for practice management and for its coding-billing training process. Under the terms of the new agreement, Meditec.com has been confirmed as an authorized reseller of Alpha II’s Coding System application.
Alpha II’s CodingSystem outpatient coding software provides front-end code search and coding edit capabilities can improve revenues through faster, more accurate coding. The company’s revenue cycle management products can be used by information technology vendors and other developers as embedded software or can be implemented as a stand-alone solution directly for healthcare providers.
