Medical Electronic Billing (MEB)
is a division of SouthWest Direct, a privately
owned printing and mailing company based in Fort
Myers, Florida. Founded in 1988 by Anthony Correnti
Sr., SouthWest Direct began as a local lettershop
serving the Southwest Florida area. Over the years
SouthWest Direct developed into one of the premier
direct mail production facilities in the state,
offering database management, 4-color process
printing, Xerox™ and OCE™ laser printing,
mailing services and fulfillment.
In 1991 the company began mailing billing statements
for a community hospital in Naples, Florida. Each
day boxes full of preprinted continuous forms
were picked up, folded, inserted and mailed. As
technology advanced, new equipment allowed us
to propose a better way. Working with the hospital
we designed a color custom statement onto which
patient data was laser printed. The result was
a statement that was patient friendly and easy
to read. Soon we began processing billing for
clinics, labs, and collection agencies. That billing
statement process evolved into MEB Statement Services.
We have invested ten years and over three million
dollars in developing a patient billing process
that is the most technologically advanced in the
world. We are now able to offer MEB Statement
Services to healthcare providers nationwide.
