FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Software Release Marks 10th Anniversary
Sucaba Rolls Out Version 2.6 of
ClaimLink
Pasadena, CA, May 24, 1997 --Celebrating their 10th Anniversary, Sucaba
Company, Inc announced the release of their workers' compensation and liability claims
administration system, version 2.6, of ClaimLink.
A host of new features have been added to the workers' compensation
system including Full-Time Equivalency Maintenance which permits the entry and maintenance
of employee hours and salary data by location and month. Utilizing this and other system
data, Full-Time Equivalency reports may be produced to provide accident rates per 200,000
hours worked. This process levels out all accidents to a common denominator, so accidents
for large and small organizational units may be directly compared.
Selective Segregation of Legal and Medical Case Notes allows defense
attorneys or medical doctors to enter notes into a separate note file providing protection
from disclosure. When a Legal or Medical Case Note is entered, the system automatically
places a short note in the regular Case Notes file indicating that a legal or medical case
note has been entered on that day and by whom it was entered.
On Sucaba's liability system, a series of Synopsis Screens have been
added which collect data from throughout the system to provide the user with key case
information at a glance. This function is especially helpful for managers and supervisors
who need to get an overall sense and the facts of a case quickly. With a single key
stroke, the user may request a hardcopy printout of the information as a Synopsis Report.
The liability system has received Indexing Screens, capturing
information needed to utilize the services of the Index System (which runs searches to
determine if a claimant has prior bodily injury accidents). Information for the Index
System may be produced in hardcopy form or sent electronically.
An Evaluation Screen has been added to show pertinent case settlement
information. This screen records any "Specials" to date, assessment of liability
and the desired strategy for settling a case. The screen carries information about the IME
Doctor, the results of the exam as well as information about the diagnosed and residual
injuries.
Both ClaimLink systems are available for purchase, lease or with
extensive outsourcing and Internet outsourcing alternatives on stand-alone or networked
PCs running in Windows, Windows 95, Windows NT, DOS, MAC, OS/2, UNIX or MPE environments.
