MedeAnalytics Comments on
Healthcare Reform Legislation

Company positioned to help payers and providers manage
cost containment and quality initiatives

EMERYVILLE, Calif., March 23, 2010 — MedeAnalytics, a leading provider of healthcare performance management solutions, today commented on the signing into law of the healthcare reform legislation providing coverage for 32 million people. MedeAnalytics noted the significant impact of the measure on both payers and providers, as well as the importance the legislation places on accountability, transparency and measurement.

“Though the new law lacks a master plan for cost containment, it implicitly calls on healthcare organizations to reduce costs and improve efficiency, while also maintaining the quality of their services,” commented Mike Gallagher, chief executive officer of MedeAnalytics. “Our company specializes in driving costs out of the system, and we provide solutions to support a number of specific provisions in the legislation, such as value-based purchasing and quality measure reporting.”

Gallagher noted that for the past nine years, the company has worked with clients to improve patient care and quality, realize cost savings and reductions in bad debt, improve the efficiency of payer-provider relations, and proactively prepare for governmental audits.
