Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates Picks Acesis to Enable Highest Quality of Care

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. - April 15, 2013 - PRLog -- Acesis (http://acesis.com/), a leading innovator in healthcare performance improvement software, today announced that Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates has chosen the Acesis Patient Tracking solution to follow patients and outcomes while improving their level of delivered care.

Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates will initially launch Acesis Patient Tracking to more than 70 physicians, researchers and healthcare professionals across 6 locations. The organization selected Acesis to replace a homegrown patient tracking system that had become difficult to upgrade and maintain.

“Monitoring patients, the care they receive, and the outcomes resulting from the care is a core competency of Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates, so we are always looking for ways to improve outcomes while increasing efficiencies,” said Mary S. Cloninger, Executive Director of Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates. “However, we had begun to outgrow our existing systems. After looking at various options, Acesis offered us the ability to integrate several systems while tracking patient progress from admission through billing, and will provide a performance management platform from which we can monitor additional processes in the future.”

Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates expects to begin using Acesis in April, 2013. When fully deployed, the Acesis solution will integrate with hospital electronic health records (EHR) systems, patient information databases, care updates and billing systems. By enabling a platform that will address the entire continuum of care, Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates plans to utilize Acesis Peer Review and other healthcare performance management modules.

“Acesis is proud to add Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates to our fast-growing list of customers,” stated Kevin Chesney, Acesis founder and CEO. “Our entire focus is on streamlining and uncovering intelligence from healthcare processes. As we help Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates increase the level of care that they provide to their patients, we’re excited to also help them increase efficiencies, lower costs, and better manage the processes that enable them to provide exceptional neuro surgical care.”
