MediSwitch, South Africa's leading electronic transaction service provider to the healthcare industry, was recently one of the companies awarded a Medi-Clinic Service Provider of the year award for 2011.
Peter Kennedy, MD of MediSwitch, says: “I am proud of this recognition as it sums up what MediSwitch is all about - providing excellent service to our customers and trading partners, through a team which is dedicated to the wellbeing of its clients' business.”
MediSwitch is a division of Bytes Healthcare Solutions, a company in the broader Bytes Technology Group, wholly owned by JSE-listed Altron. The company strives to replace paper in the healthcare industry with value-added electronic transactions, thereby improving efficiencies, reducing administration cost and enhancing access to management information in the businesses that they serve. This enables more healthcare spend to be used for the delivery of healthcare services and helps pave the way for more affordable and accessible healthcare.
MediSwitch electronically interconnects over 12 000 healthcare businesses and delivers over 8 million insured patient transactions with over 25 million transaction lines every month.
Medi-Clinic suppliers are nominated in each of the group's business units, taking into consideration factors such as quality, service, commitment and cost-effectiveness before making the awards public.
Medi-Clinic Southern Africa is part of Medi-Clinic International. With 75 medical facilities in southern Africa, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates, it is proud to be the world's sixth largest private medical group.
