BOULDER, Colo., March 20, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Artifact Health, which provides the first and only mobile platform that streamlines the physician query process, announced today that LifeBridge Health has selected Artifact’s solution to improve workflow for its clinicians and expedite the accurate coding of patient records. Artifact will be rolled out in early spring 2019 starting at Sinai Hospital and Northwest Hospital.

By engaging physicians with a faster and easier process, Artifact drives improvements in hospital and physician coding accuracy and publicly reported quality measures.
