MEDIA, Pennsylvania (May 27, 2015)—Apacheta announced today that Patient Home Monitoring, a leading provider of home medical equipment, supplies and services, has selected Apacheta’s industry-leading mobile delivery management solution. This next generation tablet-based solution will be used to optimize delivery operations of home medical equipment (HME) to patients across the United States.
“Our goal is to leverage best-in-class technology to drive down operational costs, reduce order to cash cycles, and increase our compliance with payers in a highly regulated environment,” said Jess Cuthbert, COO for Patient Home Monitoring. “By partnering with Apacheta we can streamline our operations to reach new levels of efficiency.”
Patient Home Monitoring (PHM) will roll out Apacheta’s mobile delivery management solution to gain real-time visibility of its expanding mobile workforce. This comprehensive cloud-based solution includes Apacheta’s TransportACE mobile delivery application and Transport Manager scheduling and dispatch system. The Apacheta solution is integrated with Brightree’s cloud-based business support software to eliminate paper forms and automatically trigger electronic invoicing to accelerate payments.
PHM field personnel will carry tablets running TransportACE, which provides HME-specific workflows for load management, barcode scanning, electronic forms, dynamic trip management and electronic proof-of-delivery with signature capture. Using Transport Manager, PHM dispatchers will plan, schedule, dispatch and monitor field force activity in real-time. Transport Manager will allow PHM to view truck locations and delivery status on a map and track key operational metrics such as exceptions, stops made and time spent per stop.
“Apacheta’s mobile delivery management solution will enable PHM to reduce paper, optimize productivity, track deliveries and assets, and accelerate time to revenue for medical claims, while improving patient outcomes,” stated James Wee, vice president of business development and sales for Apacheta.
