New bill review technology defies the norm, reducing bill processing times by simplifying a complex process, and providing an easy-to-use, cloud-based technology that supports limitless customization.
SAN JOSE, CALIF. | OCTOBER 18, 2022
EK Health Services Inc. proudly announces the launch of Billtelligent™, a proprietary technology that is taking medical bill review in workers’ compensation to the next level. Billtelligent™ eliminates barriers for EK Health, empowering an independence the national managed care company had not previously realized.
Billtelligent™ leverages a unique cloud-based, modular design focused on efficient bill handling through innovative strategies, supported by nimble technology. Billtelligent™ promotes flexibility through intelligent routing, automation, auto-adjudication and the ability to customize workflows with incredible specificity (without cumbersome management requirements). “We did not want to create another software for software’s sake,” said Eunhee Kim, EK Health’s Owner & CEO. “With Billtelligent™, we have control at all levels and we can bring the change our industry deserves. We will be faster, flexible and more accurate. This gives us the ability to better optimize managed care strategies and improve quality of care for injured workers – which is our ultimate focus.”
EK Health Services Inc. is keeping with its promise to transform the workers’ compensation industry as an innovator dedicated to integrity, transparency, and customer-focused solutions. “We have been asked many times to ‘demystify medical bill review’, due to the unnecessary complexities, exorbitant fees and undisclosed revenue sharing that exists today,” shared Zebrah L. Jahnke, VP of Business Development. “We knew offering transparency required full ownership of our processes and technology. The first step to breaking barriers is identifying them and then having the ability to actively affect change. Billtelligent™ does that – it allows us to dream and implement the absolute best processes that generate the greatest outcomes. Billtelligent™ is intelligent bill review.”
Developing Billtelligent™ speaks directly to EK Health’s belief that the work comp industry can be cutting edge, consistently offering fresh ideas. EK Health recognizes that providers should be paid faster, burdens should be reduced for claims adjusters, and intelligent workflows can promote reliable results. With advances in automation, and the implementation of their new technology, EK Health has written an exciting new chapter for the future of bill review through Billtelligent™.
"It was clear to me that we needed to be free from the constraints of leased software to fully realize our potential. With Billtelligent™, we have direct access to PPOs, allowing us to create our own onboarding and custom network design,” Kerri Wilson, EK Health’s President & Chief Operating Officer explained. “Billtelligent™ is the start of a new journey towards client-choice and decision-making in bill review. This freedom results in increased bottom-line savings and provider/client satisfaction at all levels. We are embracing independence that empowers us to serve our customers nimbly without bias, and placing solutions before profits.”.
