CBaySystems announced today that it has been awarded a contract with University HealthSystem Consortium (UHC). Under terms of this contract, CBay will provide a full array of integrated medical transcription services, including dictation capture, medical transcription, and Web-based document management as one of two awarded providers to UHC's alliance of academic health centers across the United States.

"University HealthSystem Consortium is pleased to offer our members, as a result of the competitive bid process, an agreement with CBaySystems and Services, Inc. for medical transcription services," said Cindy White, UHC's vice president of operations. "CBay responded to our request for bid with a value-packed offer. A task force of UHC members wanted variety and options from awarded suppliers and they saw that in CBay's offer. After bid analysis, the task force directed us to make CBay a UHC supplier. UHC's mission is to help members succeed in their respective markets. The value offered in CBay's agreement does that and more! As a newly awarded supplier through UHC's Contract Solutions, we believe CBay will bring a competitive advantage to the members for years to come."

"We are very excited by the opportunity to help academic health centers run more efficiently," said Jason Kolinoski, CBay's senior vice president of sales. "While we already work with several university health care organizations, this agreement will allow us to help many more academic facilities maintain high-quality patient care and at the same time, reduce costs. UHC members across the country now have an expeditious and effective way to engage our services."
