R1 RCM Inc. (NASDAQ:RCM), a leader in revenue cycle management and
physician advisory services for healthcare providers, announced
today a strategic partnership with Phreesia, a leading provider of
patient intake management software, designed to transform the
patient and provider experience, standardizing patient access and
reducing administrative waste.
Through the partnership, R1 and Phreesia have created a unique
offering that leverages R1’s distinctive operating model and
Phreesia’s strength in patient self-service technology to provide a
seamless front-end experience for patients across both ambulatory
and inpatient settings.
“R1 is committed to the patient experience across all settings
of care and payment models,” said Joe Flanagan, President and Chief
Executive Officer of R1. “This partnership with Phreesia
strengthens our front-end processes so providers can focus on
patient care.”
The deal comes at a time when healthcare is becoming
increasingly complex, patient financial responsibility is growing
steadily, and large health systems are looking for ways to intake
patients more efficiently and consistently.
“This partnership gives us the opportunity to provide a common
and meaningful patient experience across our system,” said Tony
Speranzo, Chief Financial Officer of Ascension. “It brings our
acute-care partner and our valued partner in ambulatory care
together to modernize patient access, and that aligns perfectly
with our mission to become ‘One Ascension.’”
The new offering includes Phreesia’s patient-centric intake
management features, including self-service automation, flexible
payment options and mobile pre-registration capability.
“We’re so glad to be collaborating with R1 on this comprehensive
offering,” said Chaim Indig, Chief Executive Officer of Phreesia.
“R1 and Phreesia will continue to empower healthcare organizations
by removing the administrative burdens that can stand in the way of
high-quality care and a great patient experience.”
