VisionShare Focuses On Cost Savings for Medicare Mainframe Transactions


PASSPORT PC TO HOST Recommended for Desktop Access to Medicare Host Applications

(PRWEB) October 20, 2005 -- VisionShare, a privately held software and services company located in St. Paul, Minnesota, is a leading provider of simple, secure, reliable data communication services for healthcare and financial service organizations. The company's Secure Exchange Software™ uses military-grade encryption and authentication methods to meet the escalating regulatory demands on today's healthcare and financial service organizations.

VisionShare software replaces dial-up or leased connectivity to Medicare contractors for both real-time 3270 access to the Medicare mainframe, as well as secure file transport of claims and remittance advice. Further, VisionShare recently announced a "near real-time" secure connection to the new Medicare eligibility database for 270/271 HIPAA eligibility transactions.

VisionShare's patent-pending technology simplifies and protects data transfer among healthcare providers and payers, both Medicare and private, as well as between organizations and their customers and partners. The service is fully compliant with Internet guidelines specified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and is specifically designed to meet privacy regulations such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and HIPAA. As the need for secure point-to-point communications grows, scalable VisionShare solutions will grow both in size and sophistication to keep pace with the demand for compliant, reliable connectivity.

To ensure that its clients have a reliable, desktop-based solution for access to Medicare's mainframe applications, VisionShare recommends the use of Zephyr's PASSPORT PC TO HOST terminal emulation software. PASSPORT features a robust, IP-based TN3270E client, as well as FTP file transfer, for Microsoft Windows XP and 2000, with compatibility for Windows NT, 98 and 95. With PASSPORT, VisionShare customers can:

* throw away modems
* cancel leased lines
* eliminate dropped lines, busy signals and annoying disconnects
* avoid expensive connectivity bills
* leave the connection running all day or simply connect and disconnect as desired

To add value to the Zephyr offering, VisionShare provides macros, which automate the connection and entry to the Medicare mainframe services. These prerecorded scripts can assist the user when logging on and navigating to the desired Medicare application.
