WebMD
Insurance claim processing and
approval system
WebMD Envoy is the largest
electronic clearinghouse for commercial
claims and a leader in the pharmacy
claim business. The system's transaction
solutions streamline pharmacy workflow,
contribute to clients' profitability,
and enhance patient care.
In order to connect to pharmacies throughout
the country, WebMD turned to Gcom®
for an SNA connectivity solution. For
thousands of patients at multiple locations,
insurance claims for prescriptions are
approved via a Gcom network infrastructure.
This network is available 24 hours a day,
7 days a week, to ensure that prompt approval
can be granted in emergency situations. |
