Business Wire
Software AG introduces its HIPAA Link and HL7 eStandard
modules at this year’s Healthcare Information and Management
Systems Society 2011 Conference and Exposition (HIMSS11), February
20-24, 2011 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando,
Florida. HIMSS11 attendees will examine how to utilize the modules
to facilitate information exchange and standards compliance
associated with healthcare-related transactions at the Software AG
booth #1779 in Halls A-B.
“HIPAA compliance has forever changed business processes and
forced health organizations to adapt their existing systems to this
new reality,” said Bill Stevens, Director of Healthcare and Life
Sciences, Software AG. “Now, HIPAA 5010 brings additional mandates
and strengthens electronic transmission rules for specific
healthcare transactions. Software AG enables organizations to
comply with those rules while simultaneously simplifying a complex
systems environment.”
Software AG’s webMethods HIPAA Link is a comprehensive and
highly scalable solution that allows an organization to receive,
parse, and validate all mandated HIPAA transactions and generate
appropriate acknowledgements for HIPAA 5010, 4010, and 4010 A1
standards. The module streamlines health care industry transactions
by providing a solution for rapid and seamless integration of
providers, payers, routers, and sponsors.
The HL7 eStandard module facilitates the hassle-free exchange of
healthcare data between different systems. HL7 eStandard integrates
with applications, retrieves needed information, formats and
validates it to the HL7 standard, and delivers it to stakeholders
inside and outside the organization.
“Healthcare organizations generate and consume a significant
amount of data, and their systems need to interact with all kinds
of other software platforms, including partner, provider and
regulatory systems,” Stevens said. “Software AG’s HL7 eStandard
module allows any IT platform to be part of a transaction, solving
the communication challenges that plague the healthcare
industry.”
Visitors to HIMSS can stop by Software AG's booth (#1779, Halls
A-B), February 21-23, and see how compliance with the new standards
is easier and the information more accessible with HIPAA Link and
HL7 eStandard modules.
