QTC Prescribes Above All's SOA Platform To Connect Physicians With Claimants

Composite Application Will Improve Claimant Satisfaction By Shortening Time To Medical Care

QTC Management Inc., the largest provider of medical disability evaluations in the US, has selected Above All Composite Application Platform, the flagship product of Above All Software, a Redwood City, California-based business integration software provider, to develop an application that will reduce operational costs while improving claimant satisfaction by shortening time to medical care.

The composite application will integrate three critical information assets: their sales force automation application and two systems that house medical provider credentialing and recruitment tracking information. This will enable QTC to provide better service to their biggest customers, insurance companies, by more quickly matching disability benefit claimants with specific medical providers in any given geographic area.

“QTC has constantly set a very high bar for how to use technology to improve the process of delivering disability evaluation services,” said Jon Temple (pictured), CEO of Above All Software. “By leveraging key SOA principles and Above All’s solution, QTC will ensure that its core business processes are even more automated, thereby driving down operational costs and improving customer satisfaction.”

After looking at custom coding and extract-transform-load (ETL) integration options and discarding them because of the high cost and application invasiveness, QTC chose the Above All Composite Application Platform to integrate its Oracle, SQL Server and salesforce.com systems. In addition, the Above All platform will mine and consume Web services from MapQuest as the basis for choosing the medical provider closest to the claimant. The composite application will be deployed within the user interface of the salesforce.com system, eliminating any additional learning curve for the QTC team.

“Our reputation is based on providing timely, high-quality services to the medical and disability communities,” said Steeve Kay, President and CEO of QTC Management. “The rapid assembly capabilities of the Above All solution will enable our team to greatly shorten the time needed to match the right provider to each claimant without forcing our team to learn multiple systems or to duplicate and move data.”
