Sydney medical billing, clinical coding and medical transcription specialist Synapse has launched a new rules engine-based app called Synapps MBS, aimed at ensuring Medicare and private health insurance claims are submitted correctly and providing transparency to the hugely complex process of medical billing.

The company, founded and run by well-known medical billing expert Margaret Faux, has also expanded overseas in the last few years, opening offices in Chennai and Dubai to provide clinical coding services to hospitals in the Middle East, many of which have adopted the Australian framework for clinical coding, ICD-10AM.
