The billing and collection cycle for hospitals and healthcare organizations is often costly, fragmented and labor-intensive, a system conversion often increases these issues. Working with CoxHealth, Cymetrix will provide solutions to preserve the continuity of the health system's cash flow, manage accounts receivable during the health system's conversion from Siemens Invision® and implementation of the new patient accounting system to Siemens Soarian®.
