PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwire - April 21, 2010) - TIBCO Software Inc. (
As a leading medical claims clearinghouse, ranked "Best in KLAS" for Claims and Clearinghouse Services in the prestigious KLAS annual report(1), RealMed leverages the power of automated workflows and its connection with health plan and practice management systems to process payments and transactions. Continuing its dedication to provide best-in-class technology services, the company is increasing the efficiency with which it facilitates transaction processing and handles exceptions by amplifying the interaction between existing services.
With TIBCO business process management (BPM) technology and enterprise messaging server solutions, RealMed will handle increasing daily transaction volumes and accelerate processing and payment transactions. As a result, patients, providers and payers will engage in a more enhanced and seamlessly integrated experience.
Event-Driven Future Ahead
RealMed will continue to build upon this platform with TIBCO BusinessWorks™ to streamline processes and integrate distributed and incompatible data sets across multiple applications. The creation of a central repository of information will enable the company to leverage newly harmonized data to improve service quality and operational efficiency, while extending its operations with trading partners.
RealMed will also integrate TIBCO BusinessEvents™ to collect, filter, and correlate transaction events throughout their lifecycles. With this complex event-processing software, the company will be able to more efficiently evaluate direct and indirect process impacts to improve resource allocation and problem resolution. In addition, it will leverage TIBCO Spotfire® to easily analyze complex data and report operational insight on the fly.
