"The Forcura solution has far exceeded our initial projections of administrative cost savings," said Cheryl Peltekis, Vice President of Clinical Services of Immediate Home Care and Hospice. "Within the first two months, we realized improved cash flow, write-off reductions and administrative cost savings. Forcura's consultative approach enabled us to implement a highly impactful tool and automate most of our back-office processes."

The agency was founded by two nurses built on a foundation of improving patient care.
