Easy-to-Use AirView™ Patient Management System by ResMed Now Integrates Directly with Brightree

SAN DIEGO and ATLANTA, Feb. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ResMed (NYSE: RMD) and Brightree today announced ResMed's AirView patient management system will directly integrate with Brightree's leading home medical equipment (HME) billing and business management software solution.

"Since 2013, Brightree and ResMed have partnered to bring greater workflow efficiency, ease of use, and business benefits to joint users of our software and services," said Dave Cormack, president and CEO of Brightree. "Directly integrating with ResMed's comprehensive AirView patient management system gives Brightree users added capabilities within the software environment and workflows they rely on every day, making it easier for HMEs to focus on patient care as well as long-term business goals."

The AirView-Brightree integration is the latest connectivity achievement in ResMed and Brightree's longstanding relationship, and is one of multiple enhancements planned for this year. Past advances have included Brightree integration with ResMed's U-Sleep^® premium sleep compliance solution, as well as a data exchange agreement allowing HMEs to order ResMed equipment directly from the Brightree platform.

"ResMed and Brightree are committed to helping their HME customers deliver exceptional patient care while realizing their business goals," said Raj Sodhi, President of ResMed's Healthcare Informatics Global Business Unit. "Directly integrating AirView into the industry-leading Brightree software platform underscores ResMed's commitment to providing our HME customers with the tools they need, in the formats of their choosing, to help drive business efficiencies and optimal care."

This direct integration was made possible by the ResMed Data Exchange program, a comprehensive suite of software and service solutions that allows for the integration of valuable sleep and respiratory treatment data from ResMed's AirView and U-Sleep patient management platforms with electronic medical records, billing, and care management applications.
