Snapshot

MedEvolve, a provider of medical billing services for physician practices, faced a challenge in efficiently processing and mailing over 150,000 separate medical statements and letters each month.
They distributed business-critical documents for more than 300 facilities across the U.S., so their document handling and mailing strategy required a rapid and reliable solution to ensure timely medical billing for their clients.

The Problem

MedEvolve's critical challenge revolved around the time-sensitive nature of their document distribution.

Machine downtime and address irregularities posed significant threats to their operations and promise for timely medical billing, putting both MedEvolve’s reputation at risk and to the medical practices relying on their services.

MedEvolve found themselves at a crossroads. This intricate preparation of business-critical communications and document handling was notably exacerbated by the pressing need for accuracy, reliability, and security in the realm of sharing private health information.

In addition, a previous provider's declining dependability and commitment forced them to need an alternative solution.

The urgency required, coupled with the imperative to maintain a swift turnaround time, necessitated a shift toward a more strategic—and reliable—solution.

The Solution

Tessa Stigall, Vice President of Client Services at MedEvolve, sought a reliable mail provider and discovered Lineage Accelerate.

Impressed by Lineage's local presence and comprehensive understanding of their needs, Stigall was particularly appreciative of Lineage's approach. They facilitated a site visit to another satisfied customer's facility, allowing MedEvolve to witness Lineage's envelope inserting systems and intelligent addressing and document management software in action.

Lineage proposed a solution that involved processing variable documents through software for address validation and intelligent marking to keep multi-page statements together. Furthermore, Lineage ensured MedEvolve would receive maximum postal discounts. They equipped MedEvolve with a DS-200i folder/inserter for bulk work and a DS-90i for smaller runs. Output Management Software (OMS) allowed MedEvolve to choose between electronic and physical copies, ensuring scalability.

***Quadient’s DS-200i has since been replaced with the improved DS-700 iQ, and the DS-90i has since been replaced with the robust DS-95i. Quadient’s Output Management Software has since been replaced with Quadient Impress. Impress offers variations in capability and purpose through its platforms Impress Automate, Impress Distribute, and Impress Invoice.***
