ZOLL REBRANDS PAYOR LOGIC SOLUTIONS AS ZOLL AR BOOST

Name Change Aligns with Commitment to Improving RCM Operations across Healthcare

July 23, 2019—CHELMSFORD, MASS.— ZOLL^® Medical Corporation, an Asahi Kasei Group Company that manufactures medical devices and related software solutions, today announced the rebranding of its accounts receivable (AR) software solutions for the healthcare industry to ZOLL AR Boost™. Payor Logic’s solutions became part of ZOLL’s software portfolio when ZOLL acquired the company at the end of 2018.

"We chose to rebrand to ZOLL AR Boost to better reflect the potential impact of this technology on a wider segment of the healthcare market," said Alex Moghadam, President of ZOLL Data Systems. "Payor Logic focused primarily on the EMS market and was well-recognized in that space."

"The name AR Boost communicates our commitment to making these technologies accessible to any healthcare organization that is trying to drive the most value from their RCM (revenue cycle management) processes," he added.

ZOLL AR Boost delivers cleaner patient data, faster reimbursement, and simpler self-pay management, enabling users to derive higher revenue from their AR workflows. ZOLL's solutions are used across the healthcare industry by EMS, emergency physicians, DME (durable medical equipment) providers, hospitals, and laboratories.

"In today’s competitive environment, no one can afford to leave money on the table, especially as the percentage of self-pay patients continues to rise," said Moghadam continued. "AR Boost offers a greater level of efficiency to accounts receivable that promotes better financial performance and gives organizations more freedom to invest in efforts that improve patient care and outcomes."

As part of the rebrand, ZOLL launched a new website featuring the technology solution, www.BoostYourAR.com. Visitors will find information on the product as well as resources that help maximize revenue and mitigate reimbursement risk.
