PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. and
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Sandata

Sandata's customers to more quickly and efficiently pay for home
care services.
Sandata and ABILITY have partnered to provide ABILITY's

President at Sandata, commented, "We are thrilled with the enhanced
payment automation and options that ABILITY SECUREPAY brings to our
customers, and further building on our longstanding partnership
with ABILITY."
"Rising healthcare costs and an increasing portion of patient
responsibility means that patients are funding a higher proportion
of their medical expenses," said Bud
Meadows, Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer
of ABILITY. "Leveraging ABILITY's leading technology capabilities
to meet the growing payment needs of Sandata's customers, we can
help improve the patient payment process and simplify
