Enhancing Revenue Cycle Processes from Start to Finish

From the front end, through the middle and to the back end of the revenue cycle, the Trace® platform adds value and boosts performance.

The Trace solution connects disconnected data to create a more complete patient record and interfaces typically disparate data with the EHR and other critical systems to improve hospital financial performance and patient care.

Trace is a healthcare-specific technology platform that empowers hospitals to manage all types of information including phone and face-to-face conversations and the digital exchange of documents, faxes, emails, and images. Each file is seamlessly indexed to the patient record, improving information exchange and eliminating typical performance gaps.

For most hospitals, trying to gain insurance payment authorization in advance of providing care often requires multiple steps such as visits to the payer portal, phone conversations, and exchanges of supporting documentation. Trace holds the key to proficiency for our clients as all the fragmented data is documented, centrally located, organized, easy to retrieve, and simple to share. The end result is complete, accurate information to help fill any disparities throughout the claim life cycle—from intake to authorization and payment.

Trace provides solutions for revenue cycle teams at the front, middle and back end of the revenue cycle process.
