HealthEdge Releases Version 3.0 of HealthRules Payor, Providing Unprecedented, Integrated Support for CDHP

New software release provides revolutionary platform for consumer-oriented transformation

Burlington, MA, June 3, 2008—HealthEdge, the leading provider of next-generation claims and benefit administration, business intelligence and portal solutions for healthcare payors, today announced the availability of HealthRules Payor 3.0, the latest version of its award-winning claims processing software. This update to the recently patented HealthRules Payor software includes a complete end-to-end, fully integrated solution for managing and processing consumer-directed health plans.  It provides the ability for payors to quickly and easily create rich plan offerings, adjudicate all of their claims in real-time, provide unmatched customer service, and give their members the cost and quality information they need to become better informed consumers.

Other products handle consumer-directed health plans through external “add-on” solutions, often requiring extensive duplication of effort.  “The HealthRules CDH functionality,” according to Ray Desrochers, HealthEdge’s Executive Vice President of Products and Marketing, “has been designed as an integral part of the core system.  For payors, this means that all information in HealthRules is configured in only one place, CDH capabilities and business intelligence are fully integrated for true business transparency, and customer service information is available from a single, easy-to-understand source.  Our ability to provide this type of rich CDH functionality is yet another example of how the HealthRules platform was built, from the ground up, to truly address the needs of the new and quickly-changing healthcare marketplace.”

HealthRules Payor 3.0 is available and shipping now.
