AAOE Adds Healthmark’s MedRelease to the Peer Review Program™

for Orthopedic and Musculoskeletal Vendors

AAOE’s Peer Review Process creates a unique opportunity for vendors to enhance their

reputation and foster deeper, more meaningful relationships with prospective clients.

INDIANAPOLIS, IN – The American Alliance of Orthopaedic Executives (AAOE) adds Healthmark’s MedRelease to the Peer Review Program™ for orthopedic and musculoskeletal vendors, connecting members with industry professionals. HealthMark Group is a leading provider of digital health information management solutions for healthcare providers across the country. HealthMark’s MedRelease is a powerful record management system that securely and accurately handles release of information requests.

The AAOE Peer Review Program™ has been established to evaluate vendors of orthopedic products, services, and solutions. Approved vendors have demonstrated a strong reputation for advancing orthopedic practice objectives.

The Peer Review Program™ alleviates the stress AAOE members experience when searching for new solutions by recommending vendors determined to best meet the needs of their community. The program requires prospective vendors to apply to an evaluation consisting of a thorough 11-step process with submission of supporting materials, access to existing and prospective customers for actual end user and voice of customer surveys, plus an evaluation by the AAOE Member Peer Review Panel to determine if alignment exists.

The evaluation process focuses on identifying vendors whose values align with that of AAOE’s and who offer:

• Enhanced productivity for the individual user and customer’s organization
• Ease of installation and use
• Accuracy and reliability
• Good value for the price
• Excellent technical support and customer service
   

AAOE is thrilled to announce the latest company to earn the AAOE Peer Reviewed™ designation is HealthMark Group. In the survey conducted through the Peer Review process, 74% of survey respondents strongly agreed or agreed that HealthMark’s MedRelease platform “exceeded expectations”, 100% of survey respondents strongly agreed or agreed that MedRelease is “easy to use”, and 93% of Clinic Administrators agree they would recommend MedRelease to colleagues.

HealthMark’s MedRelease platform serves as a powerful record management system that securely and accurately handles release of information requests. Records are managed with full transparency and compliance through an accessible, configurable, and secure dashboard. With a 5-star customer service rating, innovative technology, and industry-leading turnaround times, MedRelease offloads demands from payers and attorneys, allowing clinics to become more efficient and cost-effective.

“We are honored to be peer reviewed by AAOE,” says Bart Howe, CEO of HealthMark Group. “As a trusted organization in the industry, we are proud to receive reinforcement from clients and panel members through such a respected designation. We look forward to continuing to innovate technology for orthopedic practices in a way that relieves administrative burdens and supports their efforts to stay focused on patient care.”

“AAOE’s Peer Reviewed Program™ lets me and the rest of the orthopedic community know that AAOE Members recognize that a given vendor offers a results-oriented solution, delivered by an organization that is easy to work with. Orthopedic practice executives no longer need to worry or wonder which products, services, or organizations are a good fit,” said Chris Greenman, MBA/MHA, CMPE, AAOE President and Chief Executive Officer for Tahoe Fracture & Orthopedic Medical Clinic, Inc.
