Mississippi Administrative Services Goes Live
with HealthEdge's Next-Generation
Healthcare Technology Platform
HealthRules' advanced configurability enables new levels of business agility and flexibility in post-reform market
Burlington, MA, January 25, 2011—HealthEdge, provider of the only modern, enterprise-class software platform for healthcare payors, today announced that Mississippi Administrative Services (MAS) has implemented the patented HealthRules product suite. HealthRules provides third-party administrators like MAS with the unlimited configurability needed to quickly meet the diverse needs of their self-funded employer clients and allows them to instantly respond to the growing number of regulatory and legislative changes that are impacting healthcare organizations across the country. Using HealthRules has also enabled MAS to automate many of their manual processes, enabling greater administrative efficiency and achieve significantly improved levels of business transparency.
"We built our reputation on our ability to quickly accommodate our clients' needs while delivering superior customer service," explained Alan Jones, vice president of MAS. "Our legacy system had become a liability, as it was unable to support many of the new options that we wanted to offer our clients."
Existing legacy systems were never designed to address the level of complexity now required in today's healthcare marketplace. The HealthRules product suite was built, from the ground-up, to meet the challenges of the new healthcare economy. Its real-time configurability and advanced capabilities allow organizations like MAS to quickly configure and deploy whatever offerings are required by their customers, while simultaneously enabling new levels of business transparency, operational efficiency and customer service.
"MAS has a long history of meeting its clients' needs," said HealthEdge CEO Rob Gillette. "We look forward to helping them further enhance their offerings and capabilities, increase operational efficiencies and reduce administrative costs. We are excited to have MAS as another live HealthRules client.”
