HOUSTON--()--Lightning Step Technologies, LLC ("Lightning Step") announced today that Praesum Healthcare Services, LLC ("Praesum") of Lake Worth Beach, FL, recently went live on the Lightning Step All-in-One solution for contact relationship management ("CRM"), electronic medical records ("EMR"), and revenue cycle management ("RCM") for managing all aspects of the patient journey.

Lightning Step is an innovative and integrated full-suite platform for behavioral health and substance use treatment facilities like Praesum that are patient-centered, technologically advanced, and focused on positive outcomes. With a proven track record of success spanning more than thirty years in the mental health and substance use recovery field, the behavioral health leadership at Praesum sought an advanced web-based solution like Lightning Step that could streamline patient data from admissions to discharge and onwards in the lifelong recovery journey, incorporating CRM, EMR, and RCM data into one system, one database, and a single login.

The partnership between Lightning Step and Praesum will allow staff to seamlessly connect to online tools that will help Praesum support patients in treatment and recovery, further empowering its staff to deliver the highest standards of medical excellence. State-of-the-art technology allows seamless documentation and improved efficiency across Praesum's 30+ facilities in six states.

"Lightning Step's innovative software solution makes it easy for our teams to do their best work by integrating our systems with one solution for all clinical and operational needs," said Jason Usilton, Director of Revenue Cycle Management. "This software will revolutionize our healthcare practices and provide dedicated clinicians with an easy process from admission to discharge and beyond, with less time on screens, thus more time addressing mental health and substance use disorders."

"Lightning Step not only enhances Praesum's ability to provide personalized care but will allow staff and patients to utilize unique features within the same platform - eliminating the need for multiple logins and freeing up staff to focus on addressing substance use and mental health disorders and saving more lives," added Scott Busby, Director of Client Services for Praesum Healthcare.

"We are delighted to add Praesum to our growing family of behavioral health and addiction treatment facilities nationwide," said Fred Sheffield, Chief Revenue Officer for Lightning Step. "With our All-in-One EMR solution, data can flow through the multi-facility patient life-cycle, from admissions to treatment, and onto discharge and billing, removing the pain points of using multiple platforms with disparate databases and allowing patients to receive the quality care they desperately need."
