ECC’s RAPID Network
The RAPID Network was developed in 2001 to provide a cost effective network service for the Health Care community in Rochester, NY to give facilities and Insurance carriers a reliable network for the exchange of patient and insurance information. In 2003 Medicare Part A services were added to the RAPID Network and our service area expanded to cover the Empire (NGS) Medicare region. Today ECC is able to provide network services in 25 states and territories and we are actively working on establishing network services for all of the Medicare Jurisdictions.

The RAPID Network provides organizations with an alternative connection for a low monthly fee. Your organization becomes more productive because you can have as many employees as needed to access Medicare and Insurance information and increase office efficiency. Not only does productivity increase, but costs and errors decrease as your staff has instant access to the Medicare and Insurance systems to submit claims, perform claim corrections, and verify eligibility. Providing fast, reliable, low cost access to Medicare Part A /B and commercial carrier services.

“Mount Sinai Hospital, New York City, began using ECC Technologies RAPID Network to connect to CMS’s Medicare system during the summer of 2005.  Switching to the RAPID Network resulted in a savings for the institution of 66% for this service.  The service ECC Technologies provided during initial set-up and the reliability of daily connectivity has been exemplary.”
