St. Louis, MO and Seattle, WA – Advanced Business Fulfillment (ABF), the largest and fastest-growing outsourcer for health care-specific document processing and claims communication, announced today it has formed a strategic partnership with Adaptis Inc., a comprehensive business process outsourcing services provider for health plans with a managed health care line of business.

Adaptis harnesses its services and technology to simplify the business of health care. The company provides business process outsourcing services to health plans — including claims management, reimbursement processing and enterprise reporting - all to reduce costs and enhance operational efficiencies. Together with ABF and its document processing, printing, and fulfillment capabilities, the two companies deliver a seamless, single source solution for the health care market.

Partnership Streamlines Document Processing Functions and Delivers Cost Savings.

“We’re committed to providing health plans with best-of-breed solutions, and we follow the same advice we give our customers: outsource those processes that are not part of your core competencies,” said Jim Anderson, chief executive officer at Adaptis. “ABF’s document management system is the best in the industry. We shouldn’t spend our creative energy reinventing that wheel.”

ABF forges strategic partnerships with leading health care claims system vendors to generate cost savings and increase operational efficiencies, enabling its partners to better serve their clients. ABF developed the first fully functional electronic and hardcopy distribution center for all outgoing claims communication.
