Based on the agreement, CGM and The Weston Group, Inc. will collaborate to develop a customized set of modules to meet workflow and reporting requirements, specific to the delivery of rehabilitation services.

Through its partnership with CGM, The Weston Group, Inc. will have access to a broad range of Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) solutions.
