Provider Access System (PAS)
PAS (Provider Access System), is the world’s most advanced, comprehensive, flexible yet intuitive, Online, Real-time, health claims adjudication engine – and more. PAS addresses all healthcare Provider types – Medical, Dental, Hospital, Diagnostic, Optical and Pharmacy, individually and collectively in any combination of base and major medical benefits to create sophisticated plans.
NB: The Caribbean is not hampered with the restrictions that the HIPAA Act invokes on the real-time adjudication of medical claims.
PAS is built on structures that have as their basic components in internationally used code sets, such as: ICD 9/10, CPT, ADA, NDC – when available, GPI, etc. Transaction submission formats include NCPDP or derivatives thereof for non pharmacy claims. Therefore there are no conceivable benefit that cannot be defined precisely; consequently no claim that cannot be adjudicated online, real-time – thereby returning a response that either “pays” the claim, or doesn’t; with appropriate and clear reasons.
PAS, which had its origins in the McKesson’s Oracle based Drug Claims online real-time adjudication engine – ProHealthi and includes MediSpan’s drug Screening engine, is currently employed by a number of Private Sector Carriers, as well as many varieties Public Sector Drug Plans working towards full fledged NHIP.
Its intuitive, Provider interface – EPOS, for non Pharmacy Providers is easily configured, and remotely maintained, for the particular Provider type. This is enhanced by its parameter driven and feature rich Plan Set-up features, extensive data on all claims submitted – both paid and otherwise, absence of “pending” claims and easy interface to any in-house application – where necessary, makes implementation simple while significantly improving productivity. This is why PAS is easily introduced to any country.
And PAS is more, DUR, Drug Screening, Patient education leaflets, e-Prescriptions, and other healthcare features are inherent in PAS, thereby enriching this “solution”.
Call us, there is much more that we are excited about.
