BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J., April 24, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq:ADAT), a provider of secure web-based software applications and telehealth products and services for healthcare organizations, today announced that CenterLight Health System has selected Authentidate's Inscrybe® Referral Management solution to standardize, streamline and accelerate care order processing and completion. CenterLight will use the Inscrybe secure web-based application to process care orders from referring physicians (care plans, physician orders, and other orders). Inscrybe will also eliminate a number of manual processing steps and accelerate care order input by interfacing to CenterLight's proprietary care planning and management system.
"CenterLight delivers life-enhancing care for thousands of patients every day. We selected Inscrybe for our key office operations because of its proven ability to enhance efficiency, reinforce best-practice standards of process automation and offer enhanced communications options for our referring physicians and their staff. The savings in time and effort provided by Inscrybe in the completion of physician care orders will help us and our referring physicians to focus more on the primary goal of improving our patients' quality of life," commented Stephan Deutsch, MD, Chief Medical Officer at CenterLight Healthcare.
CenterLight clinical and operations leadership sought an automated solution to reduce or eliminate the need for operations to manage paper as well as to provide electronic processing, electronic signatures and enhanced fax communications for their large referring physician community. Inscrybe was able to fulfill these requirements, as well as provide significant processing-time savings, simpler forms completion, and a unified information management and reporting interface all leading to more efficient processing and reduced costs.
"We are pleased to serve the needs of this leading health care organization with our Inscrybe Referral Management solution. By implementing Inscrybe, CenterLight and their referring physicians will enjoy enhanced processing, authorization and completion of care orders, thereby reducing their overhead time and related costs," said Marcus Wagstaff, Sales Director at Authentidate.
