AUSTIN, Texas—VisionWeb has announced its partnership with ZirMed, Inc. a recognized leader in cloud-based claim management solutions, for ZirMed’s insurance clearinghouse platform.

VisionWeb has offered an insurance claim processing solution to the optical industry since 2005, and recently migrated its customers to the ZirMed clearinghouse platform.

VisionWeb’s claim processing solution connects users with thousands of payers in one intuitive portal to submit, track and monitor claim performance. With the new platform powered by ZirMed, users will have more flexibility and visibility into reporting and analytics information, coupled with access to VisionWeb’s experienced customer-focused support team, the company said.

“As more and more eyecare practices come to us to help them manage the complexities of insurance claims we felt it was important to partner with a proven customer-centric company, like ZirMed,” said Raki Shah, CEO and president at VisionWeb. “We’ve been providing insurance solutions to the eyecare industry for over a decade, and this partnership is representative of our commitment to providing the best technologies for our independent eyecare practice customers.”

“Our team is excited to collaborate with VisionWeb to bring ZirMed’s cloud-based clearinghouse solution to eyecare providers across the country,” said Jay Volk, vice president of corporate development and partnerships at ZirMed. “In today’s increasingly complex revenue cycle, providers of all sizes are facing immense challenges. Partnering with an optical leader, like VisionWeb, enables us to bring our advanced technology to more providers, to optimize their revenue cycle, streamline workflows and increase operational efficiencies.”

Modern eyecare practices put themselves in the best position to maximize insurance profits by utilizing a claims processing solution that offers top-of the line features, strong customer support, and an intuitive system that makes it easy for staff to learn and maximize use on a daily basis.

VisionWeb pioneered the first open and neutral online order processing platform for the optical industry in 2000. Today, as the largest platform in the country, VisionWeb connects over 20,000 eyecare professionals with over 500 suppliers. VisionWeb also provides an online insurance processing clearinghouse and revenue cycle management service to help eyecare practices maximize revenue from their insurance claims. Uprise is VisionWeb’s cloud-based practice management and EHR software designed to streamline office workflow, provide regulatory-compliant exam documentation, and offers insight into practice operations and performance.

In addition to clearinghouse technology, ZirMed offers a comprehensive end-to-end SaaS platform that encompasses advanced predictive analytics technology and consumer-focused online payment solutions. The company was also recognized by Black Book Rankings as the number one end-to-end RCM solution for hospitals and large medical centers, and was named a top-rated vendor by KLAS for the sixth consecutive year in the Claims and Clearinghouse segment.
