Seattle — Qualis Health announced that it has licensed MEDecision’s Integrated Medical Management (IMM) solution as part of an ongoing commitment to providing its clients across the nation with industry leading and cost-effective care management services.

“This is a significant and strategic investment for us,” said Qualis Health President and CEO Jonathan Sugarman, MD, MPH. “Our customers tell us we provide a quality service and this solution will allow us to be even more efficient and effective in helping them meet the challenges of an extremely difficult healthcare environment.”

The specific IMM solutions licensed include Advanced Medical Management, Clinical Rules & Processes, and Transactions and Information Exchange. When fully implemented, these solutions will provide state-of-the-art integration capabilities, allowing Qualis Health and its clients to efficiently exchange data across multiple technology platforms. It will also allow Qualis Health to provide faster and more extensive reporting to its clients in real time, conduct Web-based utilization review, enable clients to access information remotely and much more.

“We conducted an extensive review of IT vendors through the lens of our customers and their needs,” said Qualis Health Vice President of Care Management Marci Weis, RN, MPH, CCM. “MEDecision had the experience, the technology and the staying power to meet those needs over the long-term.”

“This was a comprehensive process and I’m very happy with the outcome,” Weis added. “Our customers will truly benefit from this new solution.”
