- State-of-the-art technology will enable physicians and hospitals to process credit card and ACH transactions via PMS integration or Portal solutions. This technology not only addresses the shift to private pay revenue in the front office but also post adjudication balances in the back office -

DALLAS and SOMERSET (July 7, 2006) — TRANSFIRST Health Services, Inc. a division of TRANSFIRST HOLDINGS, INC., a leading provider of credit card processing services and payment enabling technologies, and INFOTECH GLOBAL, INC., (“IGI”), a premier service and solution provider to the healthcare industry serving physicians, hospitals, system vendors and payers, today announced a partnership that will provide IGI customers with credit card and ACH processing capabilities. The partnership will link the TRANSFIRST payment processing system to IGI’s vendor, provider and payer applications improving efficiency and work flow in provider offices replacing archaic stand alone POS systems. The partnership will vastly improve efficiency in handling co-pay and post-adjudication payment from patients. Staff in the physician’s office will benefit from system wide access so critical in revenue cycle management in collecting patient balances in a post adjudication environment.

The new service combines TRANSFIRST’S processing capabilities for credit card and ACH, manual and automatic recurring payments, and custom reports with IGI’s custom solutions. Delivering either full integration or Portal solutions IGI will add TransFirst credit card and ACH processing to its acclaimed product suite. Physician or Hospital staff will have access to credit card and ACH payment processing anywhere within their facility or wherever access to the internet exists.

“At IGI we recognized the current shift in healthcare transferring financial responsibility from payers to patients has resulted in a need to deliver sophisticated system wide solutions to maximize revenue. Providers historically have focused the majority of their solutions to collecting third party payment. With private pay approaching 35% of a provider’s A/R a greater focus has been placed on collecting from the patient,” states Arthur Kapoor, IGI Founder and CEO. “At IGI market intelligence is our forte enabling us to deliver solutions which increase cash flow and reduce costs”.

Christy Corey, President for TRANSFIRST’S Health Services division explains, “Our partnership is an example of two customer centric organizations listening to the market and delivering state of the art technology which addresses the growing trend of private pay. Stand-alone products although useful fall short in efficiency in the complex environment of a healthcare practice. We envision the same migration path for credit card as eligibility has taken in provider offices. The same inefficiencies that plagued POS eligibility solutions exist with credit card. Through the power of the Internet and IP solutions or full integration healthcare providers will realize productivity and work flow gains. Healthcare has been lagging in certain segments of technology especially in the aspect of payment processing. Business owners in food or home improvement industries can process payments from consumers via a fully integrated system yet the most advanced healthcare system is the world still utilizes stand alone systems. We believe our newly formed partnership with IGI addresses this situation.”

Baltimore, MD (May 2006): Infotech Global Inc. (IGI) co-sponsored, the 2006 15th Annual WEDI National Conference held from May 22nd to May 26th, 2006 in Baltimore , Maryland. The conference held on the Inner Harbor, in Baltimore, Maryland addresses front line issues of primary concern to the healthcare industry. Industry experts provide key information and case studies on issues such as: HIPAA Implementation, including Transactions, NPI, Attachments, Privacy and Security; Interoperability issues, EHRs; and RHIOs.

The conference was kicked off with two concurrent pre-conference events. One will be an NPIOI Education Forum, and the second a Health IT Certification Pre-conference. The event will conclude with a special post-conference session, a CAQH CORE Educational Workshop.

In keeping with the theme of the conference IGI showcased its ORBIT® solution aimed at Commercial, National, Regional and State Payers. ORBIT® is a Payer-Partner connectivity portal which eliminates the need for per member per month (PMPM) or transaction fees.

The NPAG conference was hosted by Blue Shield of California and was geared toward EDI and Provider Education personnel who interface with providers and vendors. The conference featured Plan Share discussions, latest technology implementations, successful HIPAA implementation plans and breakout sessions that focused on a variety of specific issues.

During the conference, ORBIT® emerged as the only Payer connectivity portal which eliminated the need for per member per month (PMPM) or transaction fees. The feedback received on ORBIT® was very promising with several Blue Cross Executives showing active interest in this unique offering.

Expanding the existing relationship, our client decided to engage us for updating its Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) application used for its customers. This application allows our client to clearly explain the benefits of deploying its infrastructure solution to their customers, thereby shortening the sales cycle and speeding deal closures. IGI has also been engaged to re-brand one of the websites for this client.

Edelman, the world's largest independent public relations firm, has contracted with IGI to offer outsourced technology development services. The initial project that IGI will develop involves re-engineering a web-based application that analyzes media feeds from 3rd party media sources.
