Unisys, Cincom Ally For Document Automation

Cincom Systems, Inc. has announced that it has entered into an agreement with Unisys Corporation in which Cincom will provide a key document automation software component for the Unisys Healthcare Payer Administration Solution (Health PAS), a federally certified Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS) comprised of commercial off-the-shelf software (COTS).

Under the terms of this agreement, Unisys will integrate Cincom's Eloquence with the Health PAS suite, providing interactive and batch document automation capabilities associated with claims administration, authorisation, provider and member services, third-party liability, and other mission-critical business processes.

"At Unisys, we continually look for ways to enhance our solutions to improve our clients' critical business processes, and this partnership with Cincom will help us deliver superior document generation capabilities to our healthcare payer administration clients," said Tim Skeen, VP and CIO of Health Information Management, Unisys Corporation. "After careful evaluation of several document automation vendors and solutions, we chose to partner with Cincom based on Eloquence's ease of use for both document authors and users, ease of integration through support of open standards, and Cincom's extensive knowledge of the healthcare payer administration market. In addition, this relationship aligns directly with one of Unisys' key operating principles - the realisation that there is strength and speed of delivery in partnering with others - evident in our ability to easily integrate Cincom's Eloquence solution into our innovative Health PAS suite and bring it to market quickly."
