Premier Information Management and AccuQuote Enter Agreement; PIM to Provide Information Services to Leading Online Life Insurance Broker
Under Authorization Agreement Premier to Provide AccuQuote Ongoing Procurement and Data Migration Services for Life Insurance Applications
Premier Information Management, (OTC: PIFR) an
emerging provider of information management services to the Insurance and
Healthcare industries, announced today that they have entered into an
authorization agreement to provide AccuQuote, a leading online life
insurance quoting and brokerage firm, ongoing information procurement and
data migration services for the purposes of underwriting applications for
life insurance. The authorization agreement specifically allows Premier to
obtain personal health information as governed by the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), and other applicable
state laws and regulations.
"We are excited about our partnership with AccuQuote," said Tom Miller CEO
of Premier. "Their streamlined, consumer-centric approach is really helping
to eliminate the complexities associated with selecting suitable life
insurance coverage. We look forward to providing their company the highest
quality information management and migration services available today."
Under this agreement, Premier will secure sensitive health information from
medical providers as authorized from proposed insurers or their legal
representatives, then utilize their proprietary PiImageX(TM), an
application based process within their PiSuite(TM), to electronically and
simultaneously transmit the information to both AccuQuote and designated
insurance carriers. The rules-based application was deployed specifically
to reduce costs associated with underwriting and claim processes by
reducing turnaround times associated with underwriting applications and
processing claims by as much as 40%, and redefining the way mission
critical information is being assimilated and processed in the insurance
and healthcare industries. Premier's unique PiImageX(TM) process is a
proprietary process incorporating a rules-based application with efficient
workflow solutions creating an "assembly line" information processing
system for customized file conversions, index file scripting, encryption
methodologies, and simultaneous transmissions across various protocols to
multiple end users. PiImageX(TM) is unique to the industry in its
capability to transmit information in a number of formats, index,
compression and encryption methodologies, across a variety of protocols to
multiple end users off only one production run.
