<p>With  the implementation of the Federal Governments&#8217; Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC)  program nationwide wherein hospitals face significant risk to revenues and  profit margins due to a very complex appeals processes with stiff penalties,  Hospitals will have to respond with precision in a short period of time to the  many request of information and denial letters received from the RACs, while  dealing with one of the most complex protocols ever designed to recover  overpayments. As a result, Hospitals and Providers will need to have in place  the right application tool to monitor all aspects of the process.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our  vision for RACAuditor.com since its launch in 2008 has been to offer a  comprehensive suite of &#8216;Best in Class&#8217; services that hospitals can trust to  meet their RAC data mining, tracking, process improvement, appeal support and  other related consulting needs.

RACAuditor.com&#8217;s new RAConciliation module offers the  industry&#8217;s most comprehensive set of features on a most contemporary technology  platform, for a competitive price. RAConciliation is a new module built on a  solid and proven platform in use by H.I.M. ON CALL&#8217;s DocuXP clients for years.  The coding and compliance experience, reputation and financial stability of  H.I.M. ON CALL also weighed heavily on our decision to offer this innovative  solution at this time,&#8221; said Frederick Stodolak, CEO of Panacea.</p>
<p>&#8220;We  are excited that Panacea Healthcare Solutions has selected RAConciliation to be  the exclusive RAC Tracking and Denial Management system offered among its  popular RACAuditor.com services. We have observed the increased popularity of  the Panacea Healthcare Solutions offerings and are happy to be among the &#8216;Best  in Class&#8217; partners chosen by Panacea Healthcare Solutions,&#8221; stated Manny  Peña, President, of H.I.M.
