RAM Technologies HEALTHsuite® Supports COBRA Subsidy Billing
Mandated by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009
FORT WASHINGTON, PENN. – March 24, 2009 – RAM Technologies, Inc., a leading developer of advanced software solutions for healthcare payers announces that the premium billing capabilities of their HEALTHsuite application are in-place to support the splitting of premium bills across multiple entities including government subsidies.
In the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 the Federal Government has announced a new program that will subsidize 65% of COBRA premiums for eligible individuals. This new initiative has created a need for employers and health plans to be in position to split responsibility for the payment of health insurance premiums. HEALTHsuite’s Premium Billing capability allows users to easily accommodate this division of financial responsibility across unlimited entities including Government, employers, the insured, guardians, union and professional associations and more.
HEALTHsuite is a web based solution that provides enterprise wide functionality for health plans and payers. The fully integrated suite supports eligibility, enrollment, benefit administration, provider contracting / reimbursement, medical management, premium billing, care management, claims adjudication, subrogation / overpayment recovery, customer service / call tracking, reporting and more. Companies searching for a fully integrated product will appreciate the user-friendly interface and streamlined efficiency that HEALTHsuite has to offer.
“The government’s initiative to subsidize COBRA insurance for qualified beneficiaries presents a unique challenge for employers and healthcare payers,” states Robert A. Tulio, President of RAM Technologies. “HEALTHsuite’s ability to accommodate the division of financial responsibility for COBRA recipients will make this transition easier for RAM clients.”
