Axiom by Syntellis Performance Solutions Rated Highest in Client Satisfaction for Provider Contract Management Solutions, 2021 Black Book Survey

Black Book Research's annual poll of 917 CFOs, financial analysis and contract management software users evaluating over three dozen healthcare provider contract management solutions revealed that Axiom by Syntellis Performance Solutions had achieved top client experience and product loyalty user scores for the fourth consecutive year. Seventy-three percent of American hospitals report either not having a contract management system entirely or have one that lacks data interoperability, is outdated, or is inadequate to address value-based care.

Included in the polls' nearly 1,000 responses were 90 chief financial officers and 625 contract management professionals and analysts that completed qualified client satisfactions scorings, as well as participated in ad hoc polls to identify trends and industry challenges.

"Sustainable contract management solutions are based in their proficiency to integrate and analyze data from multiple platforms, but polling trends indicate that change to value-based care may have been protracted largely due to the delay in organizations acquiring innovative contract management technology," said Doug Brown, president of Black Book.

Despite the slowdown in shifting to value-based care models, 94% of CFOs surveyed agreed it is a critical part of their health care organization's short- and long-term strategy to contain costs and enhance quality through advanced contract modeling and analytic solutions.
