Wellesley, MA — September 21, 2020 –– Hayes, makers of the industry’s leading integrated compliance and revenue integrity platform for the nation’s premier healthcare organizations, announced today that CTO Ritesh Ramesh won Silver in the 8th Annual CEO World Awards^®, Executive Achievement of the Year for Information Technology Services category. Hayes also took Bronze for Team of the Year in the inaugural COVID-19 Business Response category in recognition of its work tailoring the company’s flagship MDaudit Enterprise platform to help hospitals optimize pandemic-related reimbursements and attain billing compliance.

The Hayes team was recognized for its rapid response at the outset of the pandemic to re-engineer the flagship platform and deploy educational programs and resources to protect healthcare clients from long-term revenue risks and financial ruin. The work underway at Hayes associated with pandemic-related changes in the healthcare revenue landscape is creating the foundation for sound revenue integrity practices at client organizations. It includes enhancements to MDaudit Enterprise that are helping organizations alleviate current and future integrity risks caused by evolving COVID-19 regulatory reimbursement guidance.

Ramesh was recognized for his work integrating an augmented intelligence framework into MDaudit Enterprise to help healthcare organizations overcome pandemic-associated short- and long-term revenue shortfalls. By reimagining the platform, he provided healthcare organizations with a sound framework upon which to build a solid revenue integrity strategy to survive today’s fluid healthcare environment.

“It is an honor, both personally and on behalf of the Hayes team, to have our collective efforts recognized by CEO World. Our team successfully pivoted to deliver enhanced customer-centric and market-relevant platform functionality during the pandemic,” said Ramesh, who was recognized for his role in guiding Hayes’s transition from a consulting firm to a technology organization focused on supporting healthcare organizations as they moved toward revenue integrity.

“I am particularly pleased that CEO World recognized the outstanding efforts of the entire Hayes team in responding quickly to the shifting regulatory and reimbursement landscape created by the COVID-19 pandemic, repositioning our MDaudit revenue integrity platform to help our clients achieve and maintain billing compliance, avoid revenue cycle bottlenecks and offset devastating financial losses by capitalizing on all appropriate revenue opportunities.” said Peter Butler, CEO, Hayes.
