Affordable Care Ensures Dental Practices Meet Goals With Interactive Dashboards from Infommersion
Xcelsius data visualization software provides members with engaging, real-time analysis of critical financial data

San Diego, CA – September 20, 2005 – Infommersion, the industry leader in data visualization software, is enabling Affordable Care, a nationwide healthcare practice management company, to deliver financial reports, income statements and balance sheets through easy-to-use business dashboards to over 115 dental practices across the United States.

Xcelsius enables Affordable Care to present data in a visually-engaging, interactive format. Now, dental practices can display and review critical data quickly, and analyze that data immediately, allowing them to identify developing trends and pinpoint operational issues at a glance. Xcelsius shows practices where they are in comparison with their targets, and allows them to flag potential financial problems. A goal-seeking capability allows dental offices to set metrics and keep up with their progress.

Affordable Care, which provides management services to over one hundred dentists and oral surgeons, found that its clients prefer spending time with patients rather than reviewing detailed financial spreadsheets. With Infommersion’s award-winning Xcelsius software, Affordable Care can now present the data graphically to its members directly from its accounting and clinical databases in real-time, using SOAP-based Web services.

“Xcelsius enables us to communicate more effectively with our members,” said Mike Croghan, director of electronic communications with Affordable Care. “The software is less expensive and more advanced than other solutions we considered, and provides our clients with real-time, actionable information. Affordable Care is growing rapidly, and we’re confident that Xcelsius will help fuel that growth.”

“In this age of instant information, service companies like Affordable Care need to provide their customers with access to critical business information anywhere and anytime,” said Kirk Cunningham, vice president of marketing at Infommersion. “Xcelsius integrates seamlessly into online portals, providing users with an interactive dashboard that dramatically improves the way complex business data is reported.”
