Congressman David Price to Visit Durham, NC Bloodhound Technologies.


DURHAM, N.C. -- Bloodhound Technologies, the only claims editing and analytics provider offering a fully transparent, customizable, real-time service, is hosting Congressman David Price at the company's corporate headquarters on Thursday, August 13 for a tour of the facilities and an employee discussion on health care costs. Bloodhound Technologies' experience shows:

* The need for transparency and information sharing between payers, providers and patients to help improve communications among the health care industry;

* How improving the efficiency of the claims reimbursement process through health information technology can save the U.S. health care system billions;

* The necessity for adopting standards in health care information technology that can help drive process efficiencies;

* The protection of the fiscal integrity of the health care system through the identification of overpayments and potential fraud early in the claims process to avoid costly recoveries.
