WAYNE, Pa., Feb. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Precyse Learning Solutions, creator of Precyse University, the most innovative, widely adopted on-site, online and mobile ICD-10 education solution with more than 1.6 million learners and HealthStream (NASDAQ: HSTM), a leading workforce development company for healthcare organizations, announced today the launch of Precyse University DNA™, the next generation of healthcare performance optimization and education. Revenue-cycle leaders in healthcare organizations who are charged with ensuring proficiency in their coding and clinical documentation workforce, including transition to ICD 10 coding system, can now achieve their goals more effectively and cost-efficiently with this innovative, new approach.
Optimized reimbursement through improved coding accuracy, clinical documentation and other revenue cycle functions is an important goal for healthcare organizations—and Precyse University DNA can make a significant difference. Precyse University DNA offers hundreds of targeted mobile-ready courses, webinars, simulation labs, assessments, pre-employment tests, and an online community for Precyse University DNA learners to communicate with peers.
Precyse University DNA customer, Thea Campbell, MBA, RHIA, Director of Health Information at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center commented, "Our industry can no longer rely on audits and performance analysis from months before; we must start analyzing our teams and capabilities on an ongoing basis, and proactively mitigate any deficiencies and risks before they become larger problems."
Precyse University DNA is the first product that includes a Control Center™ application from HealthStream. The Control Center provides revenue-cycle management the ability to analyze a detailed profile of workforce coding and documentation knowledge and skills, and compare them to national benchmarks. The Control Center gives management the tools to better identify risks, target areas for improvement, and to execute a more effective, data-driven initiative.
"We are excited to bring cutting edge coding education to the healthcare industry," said Tom Ormondroyd, Vice President and General Manager, Precyse Learning Solutions. "Precyse University DNA is a comprehensive, all-in-one revenue cycle performance optimization and education solution. Using a revolutionary approach, it provides revenue cycle leaders with powerful capabilities to identify weaknesses and opportunities to optimize documentation, coding, and processes to allow organizations to proactively resolve them before they hit the bottom line."
