Supply Chain Management

Financial success is directly dependent upon accurately charging for services rendered. An effective charge capture program includes proper utilization of charge information, processes, and integrated systems.

Perioptimization

Perioptimization
Clinically speaking, Perioptimization is the process of finding the greatest or least value of a function for some constraint, which must be true regardless of the solution. In other words, optimization finds the most suitable value for a function within a given domain.
