Austin, TX – CompuGroup Medical US, Inc.’s ARIA Health Services (ARIA) continues to solidify its position as a leading provider of revenue cycle management, credentialing, and enrollment services in the US with the acquisition of the assets of Advanced Consulting Solutions, Inc. dba (ACS) based in Dearborn, Michigan.
