Sandata Technologies, LLC, a premier nationwide provider of information technology solutions to the home healthcare and social services communities has successfully acquired all of the home healthcare agency contracts of Medical Management Technology Group, Inc. in connection with the settlement of a patent infringement lawsuit.
Sandata's acquisition of MMTG's customer base broadens Sandata's footprint in the important Northeast marketplace and expands Sandata's customer base utilizing newly developed speaker verification technologies. These identification verification technologies have become an increasingly important tool for payors and municipalities in preventing healthcare fraud. Harold S. Blue, CEO of Sandata said, "The entire Sandata organization is excited to transition MMTG's customers to its world class Santrax Telephony solution. We believe this upgrade will meaningfully enhance our new customers' verification technology and provide them with better tools aimed at combating healthcare fraud."
Mike Wolfson, CFO of Enable, an agency which provides individualized services to children and adults with disabilities in Onondaga County, stated, "We are excited to utilize the Santrax system and take advantage of Sandata's larger, more reliable and stronger platform than what we had with Medify. We expect the transition to be very smooth with no disruption to our service. We look forward to implementing as quickly as possible."
A complete package of information technology solutions, which includes scheduling, time and attendance, billing, payroll, compliance and clinical applications is provided by Sandata for the home healthcare industry.
The wide range of Sandata's products includes Santrax Telephony, the market leading time and attendance product, web-based software solutions, voice biometrics to perform speaker verification, and a jurisdictional view dashboard solution for states, municipalities and the home healthcare agency market.
