HEALTH SOLUTIONS AND MARKET INTELLIGENCE,
INC., FORMS STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH INTELLIMED INTERNATIONAL
CORPORATION PHOENIX, ARIZ./
Health Solutions and Market Intelligence,
Inc. (HSAMI) and Intellimed International Corporation have formed
a strategic partnership that will enable HSAMI clients to have
instant access to clinical and financial performance information
about hospitals and physicians in a given market area.
“Our clients have a tremendous need
for accurate, comprehensive, and competitive data that provide
insight into what is occurring in their service areas and potential
markets. Our partnership with Intellimed will enable our clients
to easily access data and then translate that data into spreadsheets,
graphs, and maps that can be used for a variety of planning and
analysis activities,” says Mike Albertson, a partner with HSAMI.
“The Intellimed system is a particularly powerful decision support
tool for smaller hospitals and physician group practices that
don’t have dedicated planners on staff. These organizations can
easily get bogged down with data gathering and analysis activities
and miss out on opportunities to grow and strengthen their services.
Larger organizations can also benefit from Intellimed resources,
which can enhance and verify data that may have already been gathered.”
“We welcome the opportunity to work with HSAMI and their clients.
It’s a tremendous opportunity for us to reach a new sector of
providers that will benefit from our 20 years of experience as
one of the leading providers of healthcare information,” says
Gene Koch, chief operating officer of Intellimed.
