With over 1.5 million clients, this major Southeastern insurance company has
a lot of paperwork to manage. There are claims, invoices, refunds, member
records, provider information, and the accompanying audits. This progressive
insurance company selected Advanced Technology Services'
OptiDoc™
as their solution to manage their records.
Lost customer information
resulting in a costly settlement of a lawsuit prompted the company to
contract with ATS to find a solution to manage their records. The initial
installation consisted of a file server with Microsoft Windows 3.0, a scan
station and view station. Now there are over 700
OptiDoc™
users at the
company. The scalable
OptiDoc™
solution and flexible concurrent licensing
has made this growth and transition easy to administer for their Information
Technology group.
The more experience the
company gained with
OptiDoc™, the more applications they found for the
system. Customer Service, Accounts Payable, Employee Payables, Human
Resources, Refunds, Customer Accounts, and Cost Accounting are some of the
areas that now manage their records on the
OptiDoc™
document imaging system.
Due to the nature of their
business, they are audited by a variety of external entities, such as
government agencies, as well as internal auditors. This disruptive process,
before
OptiDoc™
, often brought the affected departments to a
standstill. The
auditors submitted a list of the records they wanted to review. These
records were pulled and delivered to one or more conference rooms, and the
auditors spent days reviewing the records. Now, the auditors are provided
with a network viewing station where they can instantly review records with
the
OptiDoc™
system. The
OptiDoc™
system can further be set-up to find a
pre-determined place in a record. If the auditor is reviewing only sales
tax, each record for review is automatically viewed at the place this
information appears. With
OptiDoc™, their audits require no preparation, take
up less physical space and are completed quickly, accurately and
efficiently.
The
OptiDoc™
system has
eliminated not only file cabinets, but off site storage as well. Instead of
determining if a document is located in a file cabinet or off site storage,
and hoping it's where it is supposed to be, users may now instantly retrieve
the information they need with
OptiDoc™
.
Training employees to use
OptiDoc™
was initially done by ATS. Since OptiDoc is truly user-friendly, new
employees are trained in-house by supervisors in their respective
departments.
Instant retrieval, without
time consuming searching, a truly saleable program that easily accommodates
expansion, simplified and faster audits, elimination of physical storage
requirements, and ease of use have made this insurance company a satisfied
OptiDoc™
customer for many years. The high level of customer service has
cemented this partnership even further.
