About IBS

Incorporated in 1989, Intelligent Business Solutions, Inc. (IBS) began as a highly innovative software development company. By 1991 we began to apply this knowledge base towards creating a useable, comprehensive suite of tools specifically designed to allow our health care clients to achieve their highest level of success in patient care while maintaining a practical business standard for revenue retention.

We are headquartered in Winston-Salem, NC and we service a nationwide client base.

Service Excellence

Our clients are the cornerstone of our business principles. Every staff member at IBS is respectful of this knowledge. It is our goal to provide a level of service that exceeds the expectations of our customers. If we can provide an advantage to our clients through dedication, superior service and diligent follow-through, then we have succeeded in creating a partnership driven by mutual respect and success.

Our Promise

Medicine and technology are driven by change. It is our promise to our customers that we will strive to stay current with the ever-changing dynamics of health care so that our customers can sustain an advantage in the marketplace both clinically and professionally.

Testimonial

Dr. David Malave and I worked together at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. We decided to go into private practice together after our retirement from the US Army in 2006. A private practice start up offers many unique challenges for a physician. The first challenge is the necessity of setting up a new office and more importantly staffing this new office with competent and caring team members. Having been in the army for many years, Dr. Malave and I were both very naïve about the complexities of starting a business.

We were fortunate that one of our earliest and best business decisions was to hire IBS Inc. to manage the billing and coding arm of the new practice. From the beginning we were assigned a dedicated professional as our account representative. I am absolutely confident that our claims are coded accurately and to their fullest potential, and our representative insures that our billing is pursued until the last dollar is received. Additionally the Electronic Billing and Record System, which IBS has provided us, serves as a platform for both the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Cardiac and Thoracic Surgery Databases. The IT support in helping us get these data bases up and running and keeping them running has been invaluable.

Our IBS account representative is an integral and vital team member for our practice, and she is a key component in the success of our growing practice. We have absolute confidence in the integrity and the professional capability of the IBS team.
