Kofax provides large southern California county government agency with an advanced capture solution

system will automate the classification and Indexing of health care application documents

UK - March 18, 2009

Kofax, the leading provider of Intelligent Capture & Exchange solutions, today announced it will provide a large county government health and human services agency in Southern California with an automated document classification and indexing solution to manage more than 8 million images derived from 250 disparate health care application forms in multiple languages into a document management system for image-based storage and retrieval. The value of the contract to Kofax is more than $250,000.

As part of this solution, the customer will implement Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation Modules software, which streamline the capture and transformation of health care records into structured electronic information by automating the process of document classification and index data extraction. By automating these processes, the solution will reduce manual processing costs and time, allowing health care professionals and administrators to focus their efforts on higher value tasks, and enable faster query resolution and reduced compliance and regulatory costs.

Health care organizations routinely struggle to contain costs while delivering superior levels of medical treatment. With ever-rising health care and medical claims processing costs both health care providers and insurers often turn to Kofax to automate the processing of patient records and medical claims.
