“Inprise/Borland today announced that Resource Information
Management Systems, Inc. (RIMS) has developed the next generation
of fully open and cross-platform automation tools for the
healthcare industry using Inprise/Borland’s JBuilder 3
Enterprise. RIMS, a leading provider of automated eHealth
benefits software solutions, chose JBuilder, Inprise/Borland’s
award-winning cross-platform Java(TM) development tool, to
transition its family of automation tools from a COBOL-based legacy
system to a Java-centric application services provider (ASP)
hosting environment at their RIMSLink Facility.”
“The RIMSLink product suite of Internet automation tools
connects healthcare preferred provider organizations (PPOs) and
payers — organizations that reprice and pay healthcare claims —
with the best possible technology-based eHealth solutions to enable
a seamless exchange of information resulting in significant cost
and time savings. These new tools lower administrative costs,
reprice claims accurately, and achieve a high degree of
automation.”
“Utilizing the Inprise/Borland JBuilder tool, RIMS is leveraging
Internet connectivity through its unique and flexible technology
strategy,” said Brian Lee, director of advanced technology, RIMS.
“Speed to market was crucial in this project, and JBuilder proved
to be the most rapid and capable Java development environment.
Using JBuilder, we were able to complete our transition to a
state-of-the-art environment in just 11 months. Additionally, Linux
is becoming very popular with our in-house developers and the
availability of JBuilder on Linux allows us to keep using the same
development tools, which increases productivity and
consistency.”
