Bengaluru, Jul 29 (IANS): As the global healthcare industry scrambles to navigate the Covid-19 pandemic, the New York-Bengaluru co-headquartered Vee Technologies has been listed among the top healthcare employers in 2020.

The IT services firm that is focused on the healthcare and insurance sector was featured in the prestigious Modern Healthcare's ‘Best Places to Work in Healthcare 2020' among the top 150 companies.

Vee Technologies said in a statement on Wednesday that it is the leader in the hospital revenue cycle, Health Information Management (HIM) and population health space.

In the Covid crisis, "the hospitals have been facing major challenges with their reimbursement rate going down year after year and increased documentation".

"Vee Technologies works with over 150 US hospitals, including six of the top 20, helping them handle clinical coding and revenue cycle management services. The company also has e-learning and e-governance solutions," said Chocko Valliappa, CEO and MD of Vee Technologies.
