Global Healthcare Alliance, Inc. Announces Strategic Partnership With SpectraSoft, Inc.

HOUSTON and TEMPE, Ariz., Oct. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Healthcare Alliance, Inc., a leading provider of software and business outsourcing services to physician practices and other healthcare organizations is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with SpectraSoft, Inc., the developer of the premier AppointmentsPRO Scheduling System. AppointmentsPRO will be integrated with Global's SystemMSO to provide one seamless patient management system. SystemMSO will now automate the entire patient management process, from patient registration, scheduling, and charge entry, to claim scrubbing and validation, billing and collections. This fully automated process will allow Global's customers the ability to focus on their most valuable asset -- their patients -- and significantly reduce the time spent on administration.

Global's SystemMSO is an ASP billing and collections management system with comprehensive functionality such as an intelligent, rules-based claims scrubbing engine that ensures that claims go out correctly to healthcare payers the first time. A revenue management component combined with a collection management dashboard ensures that payers are making correct payments per contract. The bottomline results are an improved revenue cycle, predictable and consistent practice cash flow, maximized reimbursement, and a streamlined business process workflow.

In addition, with over 20 years experience in the field of medical billing, Global's staff can provide revenue cycle management services including billing, collections, payment posting, patient collections and a suite of reports to help manage the busy physician practice. Global's staff will focus on the practice's revenue cycle, increasing net collections, reducing days in A/R and denials and improving cash flow.

SpectraSoft's AppointmentsPRO is a high-end appointment scheduling software system that offers advanced technology in an easy-to-use format. Instant patient/client retrieval, booking complex multi-site, multi-resource visits, weekly and monthly views, pop-up notes and over 60 reports covering nearly every aspect of the physician's practice are available.

We are very excited about our partnership with SpectraSoft and are certain that AppointmentsPRO will provide Global's clients with the most effective and popular nationwide front-end scheduling solution. The integration of our two systems will provide a seamless workflow complete with robust functionality, said John W. Adams, Jr., President and CEO of Global.
