HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Nov. 16, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Patient Access Solutions,
Inc. (Pink Sheets:PASO), a provider of state of art healthcare and financial
technologies is pleased to announce the release of its provider based solution
for the dental industry. Dentists and Oral Surgeons can now check eligibility,
claim status, submit claims, and reconcile payments from insurers, all in real
time. Patient Access Solution's dental transaction solution suite will be
packaged with clearinghouse services to streamline the registration and
implementation process. Patient Access Solutions today can access over 700
Dental insurance plans including Aetna, Cigna, Humana, and the affiliates of
Delta Dental and Blue Cross Blue Shield across the United States via its
strategic partnership with Secure EDI Health Group.
"PASHEALTH is committed to making the claim reimbursement and administration
process as simple and efficient as possible. Secure Claim Dental(R) will help
our clients by providing enhanced capabilities and reporting as well as support
through a robust customer service offering," said Bruce Weitzberg, CEO and
President of Patient Access Solutions. "PASHEALTH and Secure EDI successfully
partnered to develop robust solutions for the medical industry in 2008 and we
expect similar success in facilitating transaction solutions for the dental
community."
The Secure Claim Dental(R) solution offers the ability to submit healthcare and
financial transactions via the PASHEALTH secure gateway. These transactions are
then routed directly to multiple insurance companies and financial institutions
through the Secure EDI transaction exchange. Each file is treated as a separate
transaction that is tracked from pickup to delivery, similar to a package sent
by a delivery service. Dental providers can check results online with the
PASHEALTH Claim Management Center, including receipt confirmations,
acknowledgments, claims status and remittance notices.
"Our dental providers have been asking for a simple online connection for claims
submission," said Weitzberg. "Secure Claim Dental(R) provides easy Internet
access to meet that need, along with HIPAA compliance and security."
