APS Medical Billing & Professional Consultants Deploys GlobalCerts SecureMail Gateway to Provide Secure Messaging
APS Medical Billing is a privately held, non-physician owned medical billing company. Founded in 1960, APS provides billing and practice management services to hospital based physicians throughout the Midwest. Operating as a service bureau, APS supports the billing and practice management needs of radiologists, anesthesiologists, pathologists and emergency room physicians. APS billing software is designed to meet the special needs and billing requirements of hospital based physicians.
APS Medical Billing needed a product that enabled them to comply with the Healthcare Insurance Portability Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996, in sending Protected Healthcare Information (PHI) externally among physician offices and health insurance carriers. In their evaluation of products, they searched for a product that was simple to manage and deploy, and didn't require extensive training to use. They needed a product that they could integrate within their network that was compatible with existing email and security applications. "The GlobalCerts(TM) appliance solution made it easy for us to comply with HIPAA," said James Bine, Director of Information Systems for the company. "The SecureMail Gateway(TM) deployment was absolutely painless, almost a non-event. It's extremely easy to use, and requires very little if any ongoing configuration."
The SecureMail Gateway(TM) is an appliance solution that provides reliable secure messaging. The SecureMessenger(TM) feature simplifies secure messaging with any external recipient. The SecureTier(TM) feature automates digital certificate management services which greatly eases administrative efforts and enables rapid secure messaging. No desktop software is required making deployment fast and extremely easy.
