Surgery Centers Taking Advantage of Freedom Upgrade Program to Replace Legacy Management Systems

Amkai has announced that it was awarded contracts by twenty facilities during the month of June to provide them with the company’s AmkaiOffice™ management system. These successes follow the major launch of AmkaiOffice 2.0 at the recent ASC Association convention in San Antonio. Most of these contracts incorporated Amkai’s Freedom Upgrade introductory promotion, which provided an affordable acquisition plan that minimized upfront investment for the customer.


Amkai’s contract wins included existing surgery centers from across the country representing a variety of specialties, with several ASC’s from California and Arizona, as well as a major billing service and an existing user of AmkaiCharts™, Amkai’s electronic medical record system, adding the administrative component to its suite. Demonstrating the strength of interest in a comprehensive information management solution, one-third of the contracts included purchase of AmkaiCharts™ in addition to AmkaiOffice.

A contract was also signed with Congress Medical Group of Pasadena, CA, which is opening an ASC in the Fall. Nila Macias, Billing Administrator, said “We evaluated AmkaiOffice along with several alternatives. Our staff felt strongly that Amkai’s solution had the richest features of all the products out there and was easiest to use.”

Another new ASC acquiring AmkaiOffice is Delmarva Surgery Center, Elkton, MD. “We initially thought the practice management system in use in the doctors’ office would be sufficient,” noted Connie Waddell, LPN, Billing Manager. “Once we saw the depth of AmkaiOffice, we knew this would be the superior choice to handle our current and future demands.”

AmkaiOffice 2.0 is designed to replace legacy administrative systems that are used today in many ambulatory surgery centers. Created by the team which developed the popular AdvantX™ software, AmkaiOffice 2.0 enhances the best features of older products while adding many new capabilities and features.

“We are very pleased with the response to our AmkaiOffice product and to the Freedom Upgrade program we initiated,” said Don Fallati, Senior Vice President, Marketing for Amkai. “Seeing this record level of commitment so soon after our launch in San Antonio confirms our belief that the ASC industry is actively seeking a viable alternative to the legacy management software they employ today.”
