Ovation Healthcare has collaborated with Ludi, a company in provider compensation solutions, aiming to enhance operational efficiency and financial performance at rural hospitals.

The tie-up offers hospitals an integrated solution that combines Ovation’s strategic advisory services with Ludi’s DocTime technology to automate an entire range of provider compensation processes.

This encompasses wRVU [work relative value units] calculations, production-based pay, on-call payments and medical directorship time tracking.

Ovation CEO Dr Dwayne Gunter said: “Healthcare leaders are navigating increasingly complex challenges, from workforce constraints to financial pressures.

“We’re committed to providing practical, forward-looking solutions that support our clients’ long-term sustainability. Our partnership with Ludi reflects that commitment—helping hospitals strengthen operations and maintain focus on delivering high-quality care.”

Ovation, a service provider to independent hospitals and health systems, empowers more than 375 hospitals across 47 states in the US, with a focus on bolstering rural and community healthcare.

Ludi’s DocTime technology, which has been adopted by healthcare organisations across the nation, will now be the preferred provider compensation system for Ovation’s client network.

The technology includes a mobile app and financial management system that simplifies time logging, compensation tracking, and automates approvals, calculations, and payments, all within a centralised platform.

Hendry Regional Medical Center’s physician practice manager Tammy Angell said: “By integrating Ludi’s platform, we are eliminating the manual paper processes that have historically plagued our operations, significantly reducing human error.

“This innovative solution empowers our providers to take transformative steps in streamlining workflows related to provider compensation, enabling them to engage more effectively with their duties. This partnership aligns with Hendry Regional Medical Center’s mission statement to excel in quality, compassion, and innovation to make our community healthier.”

The announcement follows Ovation’s expansion in October 2023 with the launch of Tempo Technology Services.
