Ensera Announces iON DataXchange; Internet-based Claims Communication System
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif.--Dec. 6, 2000--Ensera announced iON DataXchange (IDX), a solution designed to streamline the automobile collision claims process.
Through integration with IDX, claims can be electronically assigned to staff, Independent Appraisers, or collision repair facility appraisers. Using nothing more than a Web browser, the appraiser can attach digital images, print images and estimate data to the claim file and send the package back to the insurer via the Internet.
Tony Aquila, CEO and founder of Ensera noted: "The introduction of this product is a crucial milestone in our mission to enhance the efficiency and precision of commerce in the claims and repair processes. The fact that we were able to deliver a complete, scalable and reliable application in such a short time validates our competence in delivering the next generation of technology to this industry."
Ensera also offers integration from IDX into iON Control and iON Independence, its management solutions for collision repairers and independent appraisers. This allows for the capture and attachment of valuable repair and claims status data to the electronic file, which enables insurers and consumers to view status at any time via a Web browser.
Repair facilities will find the software reliable, easy to use, and much faster for claim folder communication than competitive offerings. Repair facilities will require only an Internet connection and a Web browser and at this time there will be no fees for repair facility users.
Ben Westbrook, SVP Product Development, said: "Our rapid application development methods and 24/7 operations allow us to develop and deliver quality applications in a timely manner. We are geared up to continue to enhance and broaden our suite of solutions."
