Access HealthNet Selects the Datica Platform to Accelerate Interoperability and Security for Medical Reimbursements

MILWAUKEE AND MADISON, WIS. MAY 10, 2018 – Madison-based Datica™ and Milwaukee tech startup Access HealthNet (AHN) today announced a strategic partnership to deliver EMR interoperability and security through AHN’s healthcare bundling platform. The companies will collaborate to ensure compliance requirements are met to the standards of HIPAA and HITRUST CSF Certification and streamline operations for AHN’s customers.

Together the two companies will greatly expand their ability to assist providers and employers in streamlining the medical reimbursement process that has plagued modern healthcare and fueled its skyrocketing costs.

Founded in 2014, AHN has become a leader in direct contracting with its cloud-based bundling platform, offering more than 350,000 episodes of care throughout the country at more than 5,000 facility locations to self-insured employers, unions, and Medi-Share programs.

“Partnering with Datica will propel our platform forward exponentially,” said AHN’s Chairman and CEO, Eric Haberichter. “Our vision of being fully interoperable with all major hospital and medical billing systems will become a reality much more rapidly with this partnership.”

Datica has been serving an array of high-profile medical facilities across the country and has become the Midwest’s premier HITRUST CSF Certified, HIPAA compliant digital health platform. Founded in 2013, Datica now powers the next era of healthcare technology with its interoperable Kubernetes-enabled cloud infrastructure.

“We recognize the health tech surge happening in both Madison and Milwaukee today. That’s only one reason why Datica is delighted to partner with Access HealthNet in providing the compliance and security layers that hospital and medical systems seek,” said Datica CEO and Chief Privacy Officer Travis Good, MD. “With its bundled payments solution, Access HealthNet is providing a much-needed cost transparency for healthcare; seeing these innovations arise from two Wisconsin cities is a boasting point for the state of Wisconsin.”

New Capitol Square Branch and Office for Old National

Madison, Wis. (January 3, 2018) – After more than two years of construction, Old National Bank (ONB) has opened their doors on a new bank branch and Wisconsin Corporate Offices on the Capitol Square. The newly renovated space is nearly 33,000 square feet, including the banking center on the street level, office suite on the second floor with a large outside space, and training and meeting room facilities on the lower level.

The spaces are part of the 25 West Main building renovations. Both the Wisconsin Headquarters for Old National and the Banking Center were located in the building for over 45 years. The Banking Center moved into a new space and the Wisconsin Headquarters moved to the second floor. The large outside patio has views of the lake and runs on two sides of the building. The Wisconsin Corporate offices are home to Commercial Banking, Treasury Management, Wealth Management, Consumer Lending, Retail Management, Marketing and Mortgage teams, totaling more than 80 staff.

The Banking Center utilizes a new concierge model of banking. In the concierge model, each representative in the Banking Center assists the client with their needs from start to finish rather than moving from teller to specialist to loan officer. There is an ATM on-site and computers for individuals who prefer to be self-directed. The branch has an open concept design that is intended to be more interactive and provide the technology experiences consumers seek.

“The ONB team is thrilled to make this investment in our vibrant downtown. New and better space, additional team members, and new services are all part of our growth plan here in Wisconsin,” said Len Devaisher, Wisconsin Region CEO.

A formal ribbon-cutting and public Open House will take place on Thursday, January 11th at the Banking Center. Open House hours are 9 am – 4:30 pm with the Ribbon Cutting at 1:15 pm. Normal business hours are now 9 am-5pm, Monday through Friday.
