QuadraMed® Corporation (NASDAQ:QDHC), a leading provider of healthcare information technologies and services that help turn quality care into positive financial outcomes, today announced that QuadraMed Smart Identity Management and Health Information Management solutions earned high ratings in the 2009 Top 20 Best in KLAS Awards Report released last month. QuadraMed Enterprise Master Person Index (EMPI) and Quantim® Coding were rated number one and number two in the EMPI and medical records coding software categories, respectively.

KLAS has consistently ranked these QuadraMed solutions in the top three positions of their categories since 2005, with EMPI earning the number one position for four of the past five years.

The annual KLAS report ranks vendors according to performance scores, which are based on feedback from thousands of healthcare providers across North America. It recognizes vendors excelling in their respective market segments, and their leadership in working with customers to resolve issues and match expectations to reality.

“Our outstanding KLAS rankings affirm QuadraMed's leadership position in the marketplace for these solutions and also demonstrates QuadraMed’s commitment to providing quality products and services that meet our clients’ changing needs," said Duncan W. James, QuadraMed’s President and CEO. “In order to meet rigorous new requirements and qualify for ARRA stimulus incentives, hospitals today are looking to healthcare technology firms to provide solutions that improve quality of care, patient safety, and ensure financial viability.
