BRAINTREE, MA—With the release of the 2022 Best in KLAS report, S&P Consultants, a Nordic company, marks its seventh year of being highly ranked by the prestigious peer-reviewed healthcare technology organization.
To assemble the report, KLAS talks to thousands of healthcare organizations to gather insight on their implementation experiences with a variety of vendors and how well those vendors live up to expectations
“I am so proud of the S&P team for earning us another Best in KLAS award—the top rating in a category for the second consecutive year,” said Andrew Splitz, president of S&P Consultants. “To be recognized in the Technical Services category, as KLAS defines it, speaks to our success in data migration/conversion, interfacing/integration, report writing, system design/build, and system testing. These activities, of course, underpin a large part of our implementation, revenue cycle, LIS, and strategic healthcare IT projects—all aimed at helping our clients deliver the best quality care while meeting their revenue and efficiency goals. Increasingly, clients look to the KLAS report to qualify the partners they’re considering, and we are especially gratified to have been consistently recognized by the organization over the past several years, across multiple categories.”
Adam Gale, CEO of KLAS, explained the importance of giving decision-makers across the healthcare industry access to “accurate, honest, and impartial reporting” in helping them optimize their vendor-selection processes, using objective peer-to-peer evaluations.
“Each year, thousands of healthcare professionals across the globe take the time to share their voice with KLAS,” said Gale. “The Best in KLAS report sets the standard of excellence for software and services firms. Vendors like S&P Consultants who win the title of ‘Best in KLAS’ should celebrate and remember that providers now accept only the best from their products and services. The ‘Best in KLAS’ award serves as a signal to provider and payer organizations that they should expect excellence from the winning vendors.”
This past December, S&P Consultants announced its integration into the Nordic family of companies, where its Best in KLAS distinction joins Nordic’s three additional Best in KLAS rankings, for Overall IT Services Firm, HIT Implementation Leadership (large), and Revenue Cycle Optimization.
Splitz said his teams are looking forward to continued collaboration with other Nordic companies—their vendor partners—and, most importantly, their loyal clients.
“To be recognized yet again by KLAS—especially after the pandemic-driven ups and downs of 2021—is nothing short of remarkable. It is a fitting capstone for the work our people have done under the most challenging conditions,” Splitz said.
S&P Consultants makes Oracle Cerner/HIT work in the real world of hospitals, labs, and physician networks. Our team of IT veterans, clinicians and revenue cycle specialists—guided by a clear set of core values— f ills a critical gap between vendors and in-house organizations.
