Zetekoff, N.C.E. 561-241-3210, Fax: 561-997-6518 E-Mail: solution@stiscan.com WWW: http://www.stiscan.com Boca Raton, Florida Solution Technology, Inc. (STi) has been awarded a contract by the Upstate Medicare Division of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Western New York (UMD) to replace a non Year 2000 (Y2K)compliant DOS/Windows/NetWare imaging system with a fully Year 2000 compliant OS/2 based imaging system. Solution Technology will be delivering the award winning Image Edition for OS/2 to be hosted on a quad processor OS/2 Warp Server. OS/2 Warp clients will be on user workstations. STi's solution will preserve UMD's existing investment in scanners and optical jukebox through enhancements to be installed in Q1 1999. Image Edition supports high speed scanning with their existing Fujitsu scanners through STi's TWAIN for OS/2 drivers. Additionally, Image Edition is being enhanced to permit hosting Image Edition's optical indexing databases on IBM's DB2 Universal Database (UDB). This will permit UMD to directly access imaging information from other applications. Finally STi is crafting a migration/reuse strategy to be able to use already imaged data from the existing non-Y2K system without requiring rescanning. The new system is scheduled to be fully operational by the end of the first quarter of 1999. "STi was sensitive to our implementation time table and met all of our requirements for our solution," said Roger Perkins, Team Leader, Systems Programming for UMD. "We worked closely with the Upstate Medicare Division to preserve their existing hardware investments and to provide a complete OS/2 and Y2K compliant solution within the time frame they requested." said Kent Swan, President of Solution Technology.
