Vijay Raj, Founder & Director, Zealous Services. Being ISO certified & HIPAA compliant, the firm has planned strict measures towards data security, wherein the production teams are restricted from using their mobile phones and every employee has to sign an NDA.
Innovative by nature, Zealous is coming up with its own software which will not just facilitate doctors/ hospitals to preserve patient details from their first visit for future references, but will also give them realtime status of each claim, enabling fast settlement of claims without much hassle(can be availed by patients upon sharing of access). “Some doctors are still in the old age period and don’t prefer software; so migrating them is our biggest challenge. To overcome this, we are planning to educate doctors on various benefits of software like saving time, preserving patient data for future, time reduction in payments, and others,” adds Vijay.
