coding staff through innovative web-based ordering system
DALLAS, TX- August 17, 2006 – Nursefinders, Inc.,
one of the nation’s largest
providers of healthcare personnel and home care services, and

technology and business office services, have formed a
strategic alliance to offer healthcare providers the
convenience of securing health information coders from one
automated source.

revenue cycle.

new strategic alliance with PHNS will allow Nursefinders to
provide our healthcare customers with health information coding
staffing services. PHNS has excellent on-site and remote
coders, along with proprietary coding processes and procedures,
that will provide our customers with access to high quality and
accurate medical coding.”

coding services to hospitals through Nursefinders’ excellent
