March 20, 2003

Health Management Online, Inc., (HM) and MedRisk, Inc., released plans to implement new efficiencies into workers’ compensation.

HM has reportedly successfully implemented a novel approach to expedite workers’ compensation bills and medical notes from the healthcare providers to insurance payers. This reportedly has resulted in productivity gains, cost reductions and simpler workflows.

HM’s ASP service requires no capital investment, no re-equip decision and no cash outlay.

MedRisk is a medical services company providing specialty networks and claims management technology to the workers’ compensation industry.

Speaking on the relationship between HM and MedRisk, Shelly Boyce, CEO of MedRisk, noted, “MedRisk focuses on what payers and providers need to be successful. Prompt notice of claims, more efficient claims processing, and faster payments are critical. We believe HM represents an important enhancement of our total claim flow solution.”

MedRisk, and their providers expect to gain an immediate productivity boost, lower costs and faster reimbursement as they adopt HM’s service. Users can reportedly expect an increase in quality, the ability to inquire into bill status online and a reduction in the frustration typically associated with the current paper bound billing process.
