JET Health Solutions Launches Automated Underwriting System for Health Plan Carriers

Ft. Lauderdale, FL, April 2010 – Historic healthcare insurance reform bill increases the need to automate processing and medical underwriting of individual and family health insurance applications. JET InsureFuse™ V3.0, an automated underwriting processing system, accommodates this need for automation and faster processing while increasing efficiencies and satisfaction among individuals, families, agents, underwriters and health plans.

JET Health Solutions, the healthcare product and solutions division of AAJ Technologies, premiered JET InsureFuse™ V3.0, an automated medical underwriting processing system at LOMA’s Health Underwriters Study Group Annual Meeting in San Antonio, Texas.
