Under the terms of their agreement, eLifeCare, a developer and provider of technologies and services that offer interoperability for the healthcare industry, will integrate Edentify’s proprietary IDAlert identity fraud monitoring software into eLifeCare’s interoperable EON solution for healthcare organizations.

eLifeCare delivers IT solutions for medical practice management, employers, employees, and payers. The company’s EON exchange and EON toolbar seamlessly connects disparate healthcare systems, giving doctors and practices a single source for software, data implementation, support, security, backup, disaster recovery, compliance, and now, ID theft and recovery.

Terrence DeFranco, CEO of Edentify, said: We are excited to partner with eLifeCare and bring our technology to help combat medical fraud, which the IRS estimates amounts to billions of dollars, or three to ten percent of total healthcare costs, each year. This partnership will help healthcare organizations nationwide protect patient and employee identities.

With medical theft on the rise, there is no better time for eLifeCare to increase participant value by adding identity monitoring to its existing service menu. This agreement is another example of how Edentify’s growing partner network extends the reach of ID theft protection and recovery to previously untapped industries.
