?We are excited to complete this deal and provide a new revenue stream to this healthcarefacility,? said Doug Kennedy, vice president of sales and marketing for Varisol and CSIFinancial Services. ?The revenue generated by the sale of these aged account receivables willhelp this hospital optimize its revenue cycle, and our patient-sensitive servicing platformensures that each patient will be treated with respect and dignity throughout the process.?
