Weve had an amazing level of interaction with the OneSourceMed staff and its made a tremendous difference in the quality of the system. OneSourceMeds guidance, coupled with our knowledge of Internet based credentialing software, lets us really push the boundaries," Cox added.

The new system has completed beta testing in and is now in full production at OneSourceMed. Having utilized the system in development and currently to manage a large number of physicians enrollment needs, we have experienced a demand for this type of technology and anticipate doubling the providers using our service within the next twelve months. This is truly a revolution for us and is on the edge of industry technology in general," said Patrick Birmingham.
