Respected senior care organization chooses Medsphere as health IT backbone in new senior behavioral health hospital focused specifically on mental health challenges.

Medsphere Systems Corporation, the leading provider of affordable and interoperable healthcare IT platform solutions and services, today announced that Catholic Care Center of Bel Aire, Kansas, a Wichita suburb, will open a new senior behavioral health hospital with the company’s Wellsoft electronic health record (EHR) and RCM Cloud revenue cycle management solutions.

A nonprofit Catholic healthcare ministry of the Catholic Diocese of Wichita, Catholic Care Center features a full continuum of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory support residences, short-term skilled rehab, and long-term care. Catholic Care Center’s goal is to provide the highest quality of care to residents at all levels of living, and to offer this care in a spiritually nourishing environment.

“We’re honored by Catholic Care Center’s selection of Medsphere and look forward to supporting the health of all Center residents,” said Medsphere CEO Jeri Judkins. “In many ways, Catholic Care Center is a reminder of times when faith played a more active role in American healthcare and the needs of patients and residents were paramount. This is still the focus at Catholic Care Center, and we take great pride in providing them with affordable health IT that doesn’t drain dollars better spent on resident care.”

Medsphere’s Wellsoft EHR solution supports comprehensive care across behavioral health, urgent, and emergency care environments. The company’s RCM Cloud solution is a suite of patient access and revenue cycle tools that streamline payment processes, speed up payer reimbursements, and improve the financial outlook of the organization.
