New Jersey practice outsources billing to Zotec

Atlantic Medical Imaging (AMI) is now outsourcing billing services to practice management company Zotec Partners.

Based in New Jersey, Atlantic Medical Imaging is a full service, outpatient imaging practice operating nine offices throughout New Jersey and providing professional services to three area hospitals.

According to Zotec, AMI has licensed Zotec Partners’ Electronic Billing Center (EBC) suite since 2008, which includes the RIS, EZ Med Portal and decision support tools. Now, the company is turning billing over to Zotec.

AMI will continue to utilize the RIS tool, which allows the practice to manage its scheduling and workflow needs, Zotec stated.
