Hawaii-Based University Health Alliance Partners with Capario for Electronic Data Interchange

SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Capario, a provider of revenue cycle management solutions that connect healthcare payers and providers nationwide, today announced that it has secured a contract with University Health Alliance (UHA) to provide electronic connectivity for claims and electronic remittance advice (ERA) for its Hawaii providers. UHA, the third-largest commercial health insurer in Hawaii with more than 30,000 members, will increase electronic transaction volumes through its relationship with Capario.

“We still have a large number of providers submitting paper claims”

“We still have a large number of providers submitting paper claims,” said Dr. Max Botticelli, CEO of UHA. “By partnering with Capario, we will be able to electronically connect with their providers, which will help us operate more efficiently and enable the practices to receive payments more quickly.”

In an effort to provide greater direct connectivity for its 150 providers in Hawaii, Capario’s relationship with UHA will encourage these providers to use electronic data interchange (EDI) instead of submitting paper claims. This will result in reduced operating costs for both UHA and providers.

“The UHA agreement signifies Capario’s strong relationship with numerous payers nationwide,” said Andrew Lawson, president of Capario. “We look forward to helping UHA achieve its EDI goals and enhancing the services we offer to our provider clients in Hawaii.”
