“This is a time of unprecedented change in the American health care system, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to help these highly respected organizations navigate through the coming changes,” DataGen President Michael Ilnicki said. “Hospital leaders are already beginning to experience the dramatic impact of reform, policy changes, and new reimbursement mechanisms. Understanding the financial ramifications of reform measures—before their implementation—is the first and most important step of running a successful hospital in 2010 and beyond."
DataGen provides timely and affordable financial analyses of major reimbursement changes and is unsurpassed in providing clients with real-time information on legislative changes that affect hospitals’ and health systems’ operations, particularly concerning the Medicare system.
