PH Tech Selects Ecessa Solutions to Manage Online Healthcare Management System
Jul 03, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) --
Ecessa, a provider of WAN link controllers for small-to-medium sized enterprises, announced that healthcare technology provider PH Tech has selected Ecessa's PowerLink WAN link controllers to manage its WAN infrastructure demands.
With PowerLink, health plan providers and doctor offices will be able to access PH Tech's online system to obtain applications and review healthcare claims. PH Tech utilizes a proprietary customer application and service called Clinical Integration Manager (CIM). Doctors, primary care providers and insurance providers use this web-based application to conduct online checks on patient eligibility, authorizations, status on accounts, online medical records management and payment of claims.
"We chose the PowerLink to provide us with network connection redundancy. This gave us automated WAN management through network connection load balancing and failover," said Chad Casady, director of information technology at PH Tech. "Now we have greater network uptime, and I don't have to scramble every time we have a service provider outage. Since we put in the PowerLink, we have had zero network downtime for our users due to ISP connectivity issues. Now, when the wireless connection goes down, users don't even know about it."
"PH Tech needed a solution that would provide them with automatic failover between Internet connections in the event of a service provider outage," states Jason Breyer, VP of sales at Ecessa. "PowerLink met their business continuity requirements, and offered them a solution for protecting their business from network outages. PowerLink provided them with redundant network connectivity, so that if one service provider has an outage, PowerLink automatically fails over to the other provider. PowerLink also enabled them with greater overall throughput by directing traffic among both their wireless and T1 Internet connections."
For outbound connections, when employees are working on client accounts, or sending and receiving client files, PowerLink intelligently manages the network by conducting health checks on each network connection to determine network availability and performance, and load balances each session.
