TP Systems Ltd. announced today that the University of Massachusetts Medical School's Center for Health Care Financing has entered into a definitive agreement to use its SectorLynx case management system to improve the recovery of state and local government Medicare claims.



"SectorLynx will be a key enabler as we grow and expand our capabilities in helping state and local agencies establish effective operations and reimbursement programs, allowing them to maximize their resources to better serve their clients," commented Marc Thibodeau Director, Center for Health Care Financing, University of Massachusetts Medical School.



SectorLynx is an advanced, web-based case management system built upon Microsoft's. NET framework and SQL Server 2008. Specifically designed for the health and human services sector, it offers flexible customization capabilities, such as form, workflow, and business rule editing, making it easily adaptable to changing healthcare management requirements.



Collecting information, administering programs and managing client or case files can be performed productively and cost-effectively using SectorLynx. More information about SectorLynx and how it can be used by government and non-profit agencies is found at the website: www. sectorlynx. com



TP Systems will be configuring SectorLynx to address the specific needs of the Centre's six key business areas. The Center implements projects to reduce overall state health-care costs by identifying and coordinating with other payers, including private and other federal insurers, who are legally liable for the cost of medical services provided to an individual.



"We are very excited about participating in the growth of the Center for Health Care Financing," says John Thompson, President of TP Systems. "It is great to know that the Center has great confidence in SectorLynx and our people to go forward with a case management system throughout their organization."



The staged roll-out of SectorLynx into the Center's business areas will occur starting in the second quarter of 2009.
