According to KLAS, Nuance earned top honors as the category leader for helping healthcare professionals provide better patient care.

“By using our Clintegrity Quality Solutions, our clients achieve significant improvements in their key quality metrics, which are becoming increasingly important as CMS and private payers shift more of their reimbursement from fee-for-service to value-based models,” said Mike Loyd, general manager, Nuance Clintegrity Coding and Quality. “Our clients see measurable gains in key outcomes including 100% achievement of core measures reporting, improvements in smoking cessation from 71% to 100%, coronary intervention strategies doubling from 55% to 100%, and notable increases in their value-based purchasing (VBP) scores.”
