Novation and MedLearn have entered into a three-year service provider agreement to bring coding, compliance and reimbursement expertise to health care organizations across the country, the two companies announced today.
“Providers are under constant pressure to offset declining margins and shrinking reimbursements”
Based in Irving, TX, Novation is the nation's leading health care supply contracting company, serving organizations that are members of VHA, Inc., University HealthSystem Consortium (UHC) and Provista. MedLearn, headquartered in St. Paul, MN, is one of the nation's most respected authorities on medical coding, compliance and reimbursement.
This agreement brings MedLearn expertise to ambulatory surgery centers and oncology centers that are served by Novation. MedLearn resources available to these organizations include webcast seminars, print and e-publications, a telephone hotline and web-based services.
"Providers are under constant pressure to offset declining margins and shrinking reimbursements," says Tina Javeri, R.Ph., Portfolio Executive at Novation "These services provide real-time support for members who have reimbursement questions, saving them time and energy versus researching answers from multiple sources. Our goal is to empower providers with as much information as possible to make decisions that improve their bottom line."
MedLearn President Mike Rogge adds: "MedLearn looks forward to helping the members served by VHA, UHC and Provista, all appropriate reimbursement opportunities, while maintaining rock-solid compliance with coding, billing and documentation rules. This partnership gives members access to MedLearn's repository of trusted multidisciplinary expertise — unmatched in our industry. Together, Novation and MedLearn will provide unsurpassed coding and reimbursement expertise to the members served by VHA, UHC and Provista."
