Delivering Excellence
Modernized Patient Accounting System for a Large Private Healthcare Service Provider
BUSINESS NEED
• Client’s legacy ‘Patient Accounting
(PA)’ system was designed with
Customer Information Control System
(CICS) and included inefficient
workflows due to screen size
limitations
• The business users wanted to improve
the look and feel of the system
• The end users wanted effective
workflows and consolidation of the
screens
SYNTEL SOLUTION
• Syntel migrated the existing CICS-based legacy
screens to .NET platform in line with the client’s
technology strategy
• Virtual storage access method (VSAM) files
were converted to Database2 (DB2) for
interoperability with the .NET screens
• The existing DB2 database was re-used to
reduce migration timelines and complexity
• The .NET screens interfaced with the mainframe
for data access and batch processing
• Syntel reused many .NET development blocks
already developed by the customer for other
applications
• Syntel provided services with regards to
detailed-level architecture which included
design, build, and test phases
BUSINESS BENEFITS
• Highly scalable architecture that
can handle high volume of data
• Service oriented application
design for future extensibility
• Highly maintainable object
oriented framework
• User friendly screens with rich
user interface (UI)
• Conversion of files from VSAM to
DB2 provided consistency for
data storage
• Improved workflows automate
many manual activities
