We started off with adapting components from our existing web application technologies and by taking a unique approach that differentiates us from our competition, we bring a no-nonsense, no minimums, low risk, easy to learn and use, simple secure web-based solution based on our proven technology to market.
The application is a robust, secure, reliable tool that is a very low cost solution to your reporting needs. We were able to keep cost at a minimum as we had to create this product to fill an internal need, this solution turned out to be an excellent product to offer the public.
About FARA Business Services, Inc.
FARA Business Services, Inc., a division of FARA (F.A. Richard and Associates, Inc.), has been providing insurance claims management software for over 15 years. We have expanded our offerings into risk intelligence, premium auditing, and other award winning solutions.
We do not view ourselves as a software company, but rather as a partner to our clients.
Making MRCE a Reality
To bring this new solution, MRCE, to market, we first had to understand the new laws and then utilize our extensive experience to rapidly design a cost effective solution for our clients to utilize. Our outcome is an application that provides the needed services in a low-cost, secure, reliable package.
We invited Laura Tarantino to join our management team in 2009. With her legal expertise, she quickly became a valuable resource to our company and to our clients who were trying to understand and navigate the process and comply with aggressive timelines and confusing language. With her 20 years of corporate counsel experience, she has demystified the law and become an industry authority.
Supporting Cast
Our software developers, architects, engineers, and analysts pulled apart the technical specifications and quickly got to designing and building a robust solution.
Our team of 15 full-time IT staff stands ready and stands behind this application. Since MRCE was built in-house, making custom modifications for our clients is much easier than dealing with a software application that is not flexible and cannot be enhanced readily to meet the evolving business needs and changes in the rules that are anticipated.
Our staff EDI expert, Larry Sundeen, possesses 12+ years of direct EDI expertise that applies directly to the ANSI X12 electronic data exchange standards being employed by CMS.
