Nov. 4--THIRUVANANTHAPURAM -- Healthcare receivables cycle management
(HRCM) major Accentia Technologies based at the Technopark here has commenced
operations from the UK, with the objective of tapping potential markets in
Northern Ireland, England and Scotland.
Company officials said Accentia had been delivering services to
healthcare organizations in these markets for the past two years, and that
with a UK base it could aggressively market its services across National
Health Service and private hospitals in the region.
Accentia has a presence in Oregon and New Jersey in the US, and in Ras Al
Khaimah, UAE besides over half a dozen cities in India. Officials said the
company would set up back offices at its own SEZ land at Vishakhapatnam and at
the Kochi SEZ to cater to its European clientele. They said Accentia was also
in talks with a few Philippines-based companies specialised in HRCM process
outsourcing for a possible takeover to mobilize skilled resources for the
immediate future.
Accentia CEO Pradeep Viswambharan said the current global scenario opened
up opportunities for the company as healthcare providers were aiming to cut
costs. He said the company had readymade solutions to cater to such needs
through process offshoring and integration solutions.
