Blue Cross of Idaho Selects EDIWatch

Blue Cross of Idaho has chosen EDIWatch Inc., a provider of fraud solutions to the health care industry, to provide data analytics and software tools to support the insurer’s efforts to detect and reduce fraud, waste and abuse in the state.

EDIWatch says it was selected after a comprehensive procurement process and has already begun working on the project; they have set a date to "go live" near the end of 2011.

"Our new partnership with Blue Cross of Idaho expands our growing presence in the West and allows us to gain new insights into how fraud hides in today's environment,” says Arjomand Rahimzadeh, president of EDIWatch. “Healthcare costs continue to eat away at the wallets of businesses and employees, which threatens its affordability for many. Our focus remains on the appropriate use of technology to empower our partners in their mission, in order to enable them in achieving their goals.”
