Softheon to Demonstrate Exchange Connector Cloud for State and Federal Exchange Integration at AHIP Institute 2013 and Exchange Conference

STONY BROOK, N.Y., June 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Softheon Inc., an emerging leader in next generation cloud-based managed care business process optimization, announced today that it will be a major sponsor and exhibit at AHIP Institute 2013 and Exchange Conference, Las Vegas, Nevada on June 12 to 14, 2013. Softheon is a Select Chairman Level sponsor of the premier annual healthcare conference and will continue to support AHIP's efforts.

"The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is bringing much change and opportunity to managed care.  Many of these changes are being structured, developed, and implemented with the help of IT. Health plans, Consumer Operated and Oriented Plans (CO-OPs), and Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) will want to understand how these emerging technologies will impact their business in this changing environment," says Eugene Sayan, Founder & CEO of Softheon. "Since 2008, Softheon has been working with Massachusetts Health Connector (the nation's only fully operational state exchange), and we are looking forward to having the opportunity to work with health plans of all sizes, CO-OPs and ACOs on the challenges and opportunities brought on by the Affordable Care Act."

Softheon Exchange Connector Cloud – An Accelerated Data and Business Process Integration Platform

Softheon Exchange Connector Cloud is an edge computing platform that mediates the interactions between exchanges and Insurer's existing IT assets with the goal of minimizing changes to Insurer's existing information systems and processes. Softheon Exchange Connector serves as an abstraction layer, isolating Insurer systems from the diverse and changing functional, technical and integration requirements of the Federally Facilitated or State exchanges. Softheon Exchange Connector supports the multiplicity of requirements interfacing with federally facilitated, state, and private exchanges. Softheon Exchange Connector has been already adopted by several health plans and CO-OPs planning to participate in MA, WA, OR, and NY State Based Exchanges, as well as Federally Facilitated Marketplaces (FFMs).
