Caliber Point Partners with Medlink to Offer Electronic Health Records


Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Tuesday, April 20, 2010 -- (Business Wire India) -- Caliber Point Business Solutions Ltd., a leading BPO service provider and a subsidiary of Hexaware Technologies, today announced their partnership with Medlink, a healthcare IT Company, which provides a complete Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and practice management platform named TotalOffice. This partnership provides a 'One Stop' solution for physician practices who otherwise have to work with multiple vendors across platforms to integrate their clinical data and billing information systems.

The recent Hitech act is pushing healthcare providers to have their patient records completely digitized by 2013. Therefore the individual physicians in various group practices have additional pressure to comply with this mandate. This solution will provide a complete package, well within the monetary incentives assured by the govt., thus making it an almost cost-neutral implementation for customers.

Medlink will offer the solution and Caliber Point will work with customers servicing and supporting them for a smooth transition into the electronic format by manually updating the existing data from their offsite locations.

"The transformation to Electronic Health Records is the current need of the hour for customers in the healthcare sector. We believe our partnership with Medlink will mark a significant milestone enabling both companies to leverage optimal value for customers. At Caliber Point, we have a professional back office set up which will facilitate quick conversion of EHR records and help practitioners provide efficient patient care while significantly improving their bottom line," said Neil Parekh, Senior Vice President & Global Sales Head, Caliber Point.

Ray Vuono, Chief Executive Officer, Medlink said, "As leading global IT & BPO Services Company, Caliber Point is a logical choice as a partner to help drive MedLink's customer acquisition. MedLink remains focused on not only developing innovative solutions for our customers, but on creating partnerships that help streamline customers' access to those solutions. With this new partnership agreement and leveraging Caliber Point's presence in key target markets, together we can help deliver a comprehensive range of solutions to physicians' offices."

As a result of this partnership, both the companies will benefit from cross selling and joint market penetration as well as catering to a niche and largely unexplored market.
Caliber Point has deep domain knowledge and extensive experience in serving the Healthcare Industry.
