March 6, 2018 – Springfield, MO – HEALTHCAREfirst, the leading provider of web-based home health and hospice software, billing and coding services, CAHPS surveys, and advanced analytics, announced a partnership with Forcura, the industry leader in document workflow management for home health and hospice.
Through this partnership, HEALTHCAREfirst will integrate Forcura solutions into its comprehensive EHR systems, firstHOSPICE and firstHOMECARE. This will allow agencies to automate the intake, orders tracking, and document scanning and attachment processes resulting in significant time savings, stronger compliance, and improved revenue cycle management.
“Forcura brings a fresh new perspective that transforms many of our customer’s ancillary processes that happen outside of the EHR,” said J. Kevin Porter, CEO of HEALTHCAREfirst. They pick up where we leave off to streamline administrative workflows and save agencies valuable time. We are thrilled to partner with them and would highly recommend them to anyone in the industry.”
Craig Mandeville, Founder and CEO of Forcura said, “The Forcura platform is transforming the way health care organizations manage information. Through strategic partners like HEALTHCAREfirst, we are able to reach more providers and create even greater efficiencies for them which is not only a game changer but will be increasingly necessary to keep up with the ever-changing demands placed on agencies.”
“As a customer of both HEALTHCAREfirst and Forcura, we are extremely excited about this integration,” said Kim Gaffey, CEO of Gaffey Home Nursing and Hospice, Inc. “We depend on both of these partners to manage our entire operation. This integration will be a huge time saver and make a big difference for us.”
The integration is expected to be completed late March/early April 2018. For more information, providers may contact either company.
