CDG's carrier access billing system, CDG CABS, allows the flexibility to easily and automatically customize files for company-specific requirements, allowing clients to fine-tune data and billing to their individual needs.
CDG’s customers realize a maximum CABS collection ratio. Revenue assurance is accomplished through multiple channels. Our comprehensive implementation processes; automated tracking and trending processes for merges of usage; complete reporting to allow for auditing and analysis that help ensure full reconciliation, including variance reporting of usage and revenue by carrier; and our new global CABS services can all be employed to eliminate revenue leakage.
CDG CABS can interface with MBS through our powerful Mediation module and with external data collection agencies to provide audit trails for tracking data used by either billing system.
