Intelligent Data Capture Minimizes Backlogs, Boosts Accountability, Supports Growth

July 13, 2012, Ashburn, VA—Brainware, winner of the 2011 PayStream Advisors Technology Excellence Award for Healthcare Supply Chain, announced today that Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, a U.S. News & World Report Nationally Ranked Hospital, will implement Brainware Distiller for increased efficiency, visibility and productivity in accounts payable automation.  This project will automate processing of both purchase order (PO) and non-PO based invoices into the customer's ERP and content management platforms.

Dartmouth-Hitchcock anticipates aggressive growth in the near future, translating into additional document volumes that will demand robust processing performance from an automation solution that can be implemented and scaled without taxing IT resources.  Following an evaluation of available technologies, Dartmouth-Hitchcock selected Distiller.

“We anticipate that Brainware will meet the needs of our department, letting us do more work without adding more people while helping us generate spend reports, take advantage of early pay and dynamic discounting, and improve our oversight capabilities,” said Denis Ibey, Director of Corporate Accounting at Dartmouth-Hitchcock. 

“As healthcare providers across the country seek to drive resources out of their accounting departments and into the treatment facilities where they’re most needed, Brainware continues to demonstrate its powerful capabilities for creating scalable, out-of-the-box automation efficiency,” said Carl E. Mergele, General Manager and Executive Vice President at Brainware.  “We’re proud to welcome Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center as the latest provider to choose Brainware.”
