Alamance Regional Medical Center Adopts Quantros Claims Manager™ for Comprehensive Malpractice Litigation Management

Quantros Claims Manager Allows Healthcare Provider to Pull data from Quantros Safety and Risk Management (SRM) to Track and Manage the Entire Litigation Cycle

September 20, 2007 - San Jose, CA - Quantros, Inc., a leading provider of enterprise-wide software safety and quality solutions for healthcare, today announced that Alamance Regional Medical Center has added Quantros Claims Manager to its existing portfolio of Quantros SRM applications. Alamance Regional Medical Center has been using Quantros SRM to manage adverse and near-miss events for the past two years.

Quantros Claims Manager is designed to rapidly increase an organization's claims administration productivity and insight. This application provides a secure, Web-based solution for efficiently automating the entire claims management process. Quantros Claims Manager expedites claims management by eliminating duplicative efforts and providing accurate claims information, in real-time. The system can be used stand alone or combined with Quantros SRM on a single, integrated platform as Alamance Regional Medical Center operates.

"We have been pleased with the Quantros SRM system and excited about the addition of Quantros Claims Manager to our solution," said Kathy McKeown, Director of Risk Management for Alamance Regional Medical Center. "Quantros has provided us with an intuitive application for claims management. The ability to pull the claims from Quantros SRM and have access to that data is proving most beneficial."

Quantros Claims Manager was created to support management of potentially compensable events, claims and lawsuits within the healthcare provider setting. The application allows event data to be pulled from Quantros SRM and support a host of functions to more efficiently manage claims. This includes advanced case searches, letter generation, task and calendar management, linking multiple cases, and affected person history across all Quantros applications. The system generates flexible, detailed reports based on the needs of claims managers.

"Alamance Regional Medical Center's adoption of Quantros Claims Manager highlights the benefits of integrated data and systems in the area of comprehensive safety and quality improvement," noted Sanjaya Kumar, MD, President and CMO for Quantros, Inc.
