Oberthur Technologies and Groupe Sephira Team up to Deliver a Secured Electronic Billin...( PARIS November 4 /- Oberthur Tech...),Health

PARIS, November 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Oberthur Technologies, the world's second largest provider of Smart Card based solutions, and Groupe Sephira, leading supplier of electronic claims for the French Healthcare Committee, jointly announce their attendance at the Salon CARTES et Identification which will take place in Paris, November 17-19, 2009.

In collaboration with Groupe SEPHIRA, Oberthur Technologies will present a Web Intellio U.S.A. mock up, a solution specifically designed for the American market and based on the CMS-1500 format, the American health insurance claim form. Web Intellio is an electronic billing solution dedicated to the healthcare industry in France, which has proven to be a reliable and successful solution for more than 10 years.

A use-case featuring an insurance carrier and a healthcare provider will be set up to demonstrate the electronic billing concept. By inserting the Oberthur health smart card into a reader and entering a private identification number, the card identification and authentication of the patient will be processed securely and accurately. The healthcare provider will then be able to fill in the CMS-1500 electronic form, initiate the invoicing process directly from his/her software Web Intellio and securely send the electronic claim to the insurance organization.

In addition, Web Intellio enables the health professional to check in real-time his/her invoices via a secured Internet connection (in process, submitted, denied).

An innovating and promising partnership reinforcing the position of these two leaders eager to strengthen their position in international markets.
