June 21, 2005

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 21, 2005--

XIFIN today announced the addition of Westcliff Medical Laboratories, the largest independent clinical lab in Southern California as a "live" customer for its comprehensive revenue cycle management services solution.

As a part of a series of major strategic initiatives to improve operational effectiveness and customer satisfaction, Westcliff saw in XIFIN the opportunity to lower billing costs and bad debt while capturing better financial information. XIFIN has become a critical component in Westcliff’s strategy to leverage information technology.

More and more, laboratories are recognizing the need to do more with IT. Revenue Cycle Management solution companies like XIFIN, have demonstrated that not only does effective management of billing and accounts receivables improve collections, it provides access to information that enables better overall management of the lab’s business.

"XIFIN will take us to a whole new level in, not only managing our AR, but also in how we will use our financial information," noted Richard Nicholson, president and CEO of Westcliff. "I’ve been impressed with their ability quickly and significantly improve their customers’ bottom-line."

"Working with a lab of Westcliff’s stature is enormously gratifying for XIFIN," said Lâle White, Executive Chairman of XIFIN. "Westcliff provides an excellent opportunity for XIFIN to showcase its capabilities and impact on a high volume laboratory."
