Business Wire
For the second consecutive year, Nuance Communications, Inc.
(NASDAQ: NUAN) has been named the leading vendor in the quality
management solutions category in the 2015/2016 Best in KLAS Awards:
Software and Services report. Nuance Clintegrity Quality solutions
ranked highest with a score of 92.0, significantly higher than
other quality management solutions vendors in the top five.
According to KLAS, Nuance earned top honors as the category leader
for helping healthcare professionals provide better patient
care.
Nuance continues to outperform other vendors because of the
Company’s commitment to helping clients adhere to regulatory
guidelines and prepare for value-based care through comprehensive
quality measures reporting, risk management and patient safety.
Nuance’s unparalleled quality management technologies and services
help clinicians and healthcare systems measure and manage quality,
and comply with shifting requirements, including those outlined by
the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service (CMS). Through
real-time performance trending, Clintegrity Quality solutions
clients have improved quality scores, and reduced hospital acquired
conditions and readmissions.
“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.”
"Nuance has given us tools to help improve the care we provide
to our patients. Improving the quality of care is what it's all
about; the best care we can provide to every patient,” emphasizes
Brenda Patton, director of Quality, Risk Management and Medical
Staff Services, Palo Pinto General Hospital.
Nuance supports all of the new quality mandates beginning March
2016 including mandatory Physician Quality Measure reporting (PQRS)
and quality measures reporting for Long Term Care facilities. For
