LOS ANGELES, May 12, 2015 -- Chrome River Technologies, a leading provider of online expense reporting and automated invoice processing software, today announced a partnership with MedPro Systems®, a healthcare licensing solution for pharmaceutical and device industries. The partnership allows Chrome River customers to directly access practitioners’ records instantly from within Chrome River EXPENSE via MedPro’s DirectID – Chrome River. This provides users with the ability to quickly associate expenses with a specific practitioner to meet the National Physician Payment Transparency Program: Open Payments (Sunshine Act) reporting requirements.
In addition to Chrome River’s current ability to access the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) healthcare database records, the new MedPro integration provides an enhancement to this feature by allowing customers to instantly access the MedPro records.
By integrating MedPro Systems’ MedProID® Healthcare Provider (HCP) database into Chrome River EXPENSE, customers are provided access to more than 14 million HCP and HCO records from the most comprehensive and up-to-date source of healthcare data available, drawing from 800+ State License Boards, plus DEA, AMA, NPI, and CDS sources. To ensure information is accurate and current, MedPro Systems obtains state license data from the appropriate licensing agencies on a regularly-scheduled basis. The information is cross-referenced with other industry data sources to provide the foundation for reliable license validation.
Chrome River EXPENSE simplifies the creation of expense reports and proper assignment of expenses related to healthcare professionals. Users are able to perform easy, real-time searches of healthcare providers as expenses are being entered.
Providing users quick access to these searchable records during expense entry eliminates massive reclassification efforts prior to federal and state report filing. Further, since the expenses have already been associated with the comprehensive MedPro database records, all of the additional data needed to support the Open Payments reporting requirements is immediately available. The benefits of the MedPro’s DirectID – Chrome River offering extends beyond accurate data searches. It also helps customers complete the complex aggregate spend compliance reporting required by both the federal government and a growing list of states.
In addition to helping customers with Open Payments compliance, Chrome River assists customers across a wide variety of industries create efficiency, transparency and controls while managing their own expenses. Chrome River simplifies expense intake, compliance, and approval workflow while integrating with financial systems, credit card data and online travel booking tools.
