“Already, we are accelerating the pace of major projects and increasing client satisfaction with return on investment that includes dramatic cost reduction when old systems are retired.”
The company-wide employee expansion by 27 percent by mid-year reflects hiring and onboarding at four times the pace of 2019, despite pandemic work-from-home orders. MediQuant is laser-focused on building human resources to meet service and delivery demands with speed, quality, and the agility to customize as clients disband expensive legacy systems when transitioning to a new health information system (HIS). The company credits the trend toward remote working for its ability to capture top industry talent from across the country.
“We are delighted to add powerful industry leadership, advanced degrees and diversity to the MediQuant ‘Class of 2020,’” said Jim Jacobs, MediQuant Chief Executive Officer. “Already, we are accelerating the pace of major projects and increasing client satisfaction with return on investment that includes dramatic cost reduction when old systems are retired.”

Finance and Technology Impacts of Coronavirus
Jacobs confirmed MediQuant will continue to focus on recruitment, based on the increased need for remote access to active data in legacy electronic medical records (EMRs) as the pandemic drives remote working. “New remote-care systems need comprehensive patient care information with cloud-based access to the full EMR database – including archives that drive continuity of care,” he said. “The pandemic is also creating an economic squeeze for clients who tell us the cost of maintaining old systems has become untenable as revenues are buffeted by fewer elective treatments.”
