TESTIMONIALS

Proof in Practice

See how our Payroll-Based Journal reporting software eliminates last-minute scrambles, keeps data audit-ready, and gives facilities the confidence to meet CMS requirements every quarter.

When we started using MDS Intelligence, our average quality measure star rating for the company – and we have 81 facilities – was 2.6. We’re 4.0 now, so we’ve seen a very nice improvement in our quality measures. Inovalon really helped us roll out PDPM, too, as all the analytics helped the editing when we did the MDS.
