Sedgwick CMS Puts the Power of viaOne® at Your Fingertips on iPad

"By combining the strength of viaOne with Apple's cutting-edge iPad tablet, Sedgwick CMS has literally put at our clients' fingertips the power to proactively manage their risk management programs," said Patrick Funck, chief information officer for Sedgwick CMS.

"These web-based services offer our clients the unique opportunity to customize their hands-on experience with quick access to the risk management tools that can help them visualize and analyze their claims," Funck said.

For a live demonstration of viaOne, visit Sedgwick CMS at booth #1921 at the Risk and Insurance Management Society (RIMS) Annual Conference May 2-5, 2011, in Vancouver, British Columbia. A video demonstration is also available online at https://mediaserver.sedgwickcms.com/vod/SedgwickviaOne.

The new iPad platform is just one of the recent viaOne enhancements implemented to improve the experience of our client users. Others include:

    --  co-branding opportunities on viaOne express, offering clients custom
        pages branded with their logos and color schemes
    --  a viaOne "watch list" function and a viaOne View sub-menu that allow
        clients to monitor activity on particular claims

Additional viaOne enrichments already in development will be announced and made available to Sedgwick CMS clients during the next six months, Funck said.
