ORLANDO, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 06/04/09 -- CollaborateMD, a leading provider of hybrid SaaS medical billing software and practice management software for physician offices and third-party billing services, announced a new partnership with the X-Link Solutions Network to harness the power of their two-way real-time data transfer system. X-Link's middleware offers a data exchange between CollaborateMD medical billing software and data service providers offered by a variety of manufacturers, which will afford current and prospective CollaborateMD users the opportunity to easily interface with multiple electronic medical record (EMR), lab, and mobile device solutions.

Patient demographics, insurance, appointments, and charge capture are the most commonly exchanged types of data. This content presents itself in a wide variety of formats and is transmitted across a myriad of connections, which is why a versatile middleware solution vastly eases the adoption of an EMR or other type of software that shares information with CollaborateMD's solution.

"This business relationship will vastly expand our ability to accommodate requests for rapid turn-around time in setting up new interfaces," commented Douglas Kegler, CollaborateMD president and CEO. "Upon receiving numerous customer requests to interface with certain clinical systems such as Amazing Charts -- which is exclusive to X-Link -- we quickly realized that offering the suite of interface solutions from Easy Business Software would make it even easier to do business with CollaborateMD."

"In the medical field, physicians, administrators and nurses rely upon accurate billing and detailed records. X-Link allows you to stop maintaining and updating patient data separately in multiple programs and improve operational efficiency with real time access to data," said Gary Gorsline, president and CEO of Easy Business Software, creators of X-Link. "Reducing human resources by utilizing X-Link allows greater productivity and time management, providing practices the opportunity to supply better patient care."

By preventing double entry of patient data and charge information, and by pre-populating EMR systems with schedule/patient data, this middleware solution is expected to vastly improve office productivity. Other key end-user benefits include reducing errors and data inconsistencies, and improving billing turnaround by feeding completed patient encounter information, including charge captures, directly into the billing cycle. Overall, CollaborateMD's choice to partner with X-Link will allow more EMR systems to easily integrate with the medical billing software, thereby giving providers more freedom to choose the EMR that works best for their specialty and work style. Some popular EMR choices have been SOAPware, Practice Partner, MediNotes, Praxis, Amazing Charts, and DreamEMR just to name a few.
