Speech recognition and software developer Nuance Communications has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Quantim, the health information management business of QuadraMed.
Quantim provides hospitals and healthcare organizations with software and services designed to aid health information management productivity and financial reimbursement. The integration of Nuance's Clinical Language Understanding technology with Quantim's computer-assisted coding technology should enhance coding workflow and speed reimbursement related to a facility's transition to ICD-10, according to Nuance.
