Dolbey Systems, Inc. and Alpha Systems Inc. announced a strategic alliance partnership to integrate Alpha System's data and document services and Dolbey's Fusion Suite(TM). Patient charts are widely unstructured documents that require the manual processes that make up the present coding and billing practices in healthcare. These processes are often paper intensive, subject to error, time-consuming, costly but vitally important. As the burden of coding increases through patient volumes and regulatory impacts, the declining availability of trained coding specialists will continue to present even greater challenges in maintaining a healthy revenue cycle. Dolbey and Alpha are leveraging their respective strengths to deliver a range of solutions that have a fast, direct impact on your revenue cycle and clinical document initiatives. Fusion CAC(TM) is a Computer-Assisted Coding (CAC) solution that is revolutionizing the coding process by increasing productivity and automation. Using Natural Language Processing (NLP) in combination with proprietary and patent pending algorithmic data abstraction, Fusion CAC is fast, consistent and unique in the industry. Fusion CAC is instrumental in both inpatient and departmental settings. Alpha Systems delivers innovative healthcare data and document management solutions -- including data conversion, document scanning, indexing and flexible methods of information retrieval-- that improve financial outcomes by bringing an end to information bottlenecks. Alpha's solutions address the full lifecycle of patient information, from pre-registration and clinical documentation to coding and billing, to ensure accurate and timely delivery of information throughout the enterprise.
