SaaS
In terms of technology delivery, the two principle software models are installed or Software as a Service (SaaS) based. Bloodhound offers ConVergence Point in a SaaS model that offers our clients all the traditional advantages of both the installed and SaaS models along with several benefits specific to healthcare claims processing.
Installed models offer speed, security, and reliability but typically require lengthy and costly implementations. SaaS solutions are easier to implement and have no hardware costs or ongoing IT support.
ConVergence Point offers the best of both worlds:
- Faster processing speeds than installed models
- Safe, secure SAS-70 Type II Certified Facility
- 99.9% uptime
- Certificate based 128-bit SSL encryption
- No hardware costs or ongoing IT Support
SaaS Advantages for Healthcare Claims Processing
Clinical maintenance — the updating and maintaining of clinical rules and policy customizations — is a major service challenge. Why waste your resources on this time consuming task? Because we offer ConVergence Point in a SaaS model, updating and maintaining rules is the responsibility of Bloodhound, not our clients.
- Quarterly CCI updates and annual CPT/procedural releases are in production on their effective date
- ConVergence Point includes sophisticated automation processes to make this happen as new schedules are released
- Capability to seamlessly add new rules or claim types
As claims editing content becomes more and more standardized, technology for efficient deployment will play an increasingly significant role in the claims workflow process.
