coding, lower operational costs, improved revenue cycle performance and
increased physician and patient satisfaction.
“At Cymetrix, we are committed to providing our customers with
innovative revenue cycle solutions that significantly improve net
revenue and reduce costs,” said Michael Halberda, Cymetrix President and
CEO. “Our Business Intelligence Portal affords our customers the unique
ability to easily maintain command and control while providing complete
performance transparency. Partnering with M*Modal uniquely complements
our existing suite of revenue cycle solutions and will allow our
customers to focus on their primary mission of delivering the highest
quality of patient care.”
“Our partnership with Cymetrix provides our combined clients with a
great new opportunity to help streamline their operations,” said Vern
Davenport, Chairman and CEO of M*Modal. “As a valued partner, Cymetrix
