All claims administration programs collect data and print reports.
"The true measure of a
program is a combination of factors: how it handles
regulatory complexities, how easily you can find
needed information, and whether it saves time.
But most importantly, the company that stands behind it"

ERIC Systems' Risk
Manager is an integrated suite of program modules
designed for the day-to-day administration of
worker compensation and liability claims.
It is a true 32-bit, web-capable,
multi-state, client-server application
designed to maximize performance in high volume environments. It is suitable for use by any size organization that is self-insured and self-administered or third-party administrator (TPA), governmental agency, insurance carrier, association of self-insured's, and/or retrospective rating group.
Risk Manager has been in production use and
under continual development since 1982
. This long heritage is reflected in the
comprehensive nature of its design and the ease with
which it can handle the complex regulatory
environments of multiple States agencies and the
Federal government.
Ease of use,
flexibility in configuration, program security, and
reporting are areas where Risk Manager shines
brightly. Each employer within an enterprise can
be unique in its organizational structure to address
most any situation. System access is controlled
by a function oriented security system
where access rights are assigned to individual users or security profiles. Viewing of claim information can be limited by employer, policy carrier, or even to a single organizational unit within a single organization level of six levels available for each employer. With over
350 standard reports
and an optional program that gives advanced users the ability to interface their own reports with the Risk Manager print control module, there is virtually no limit to the number and nature of reports than can be made available to clients and users.
Risk Manager is a real-time design
meaning that there are no posting routines required at the end of day or month to prepare data for period reporting. Transactions affect financial totals as soon as the entry is saved allowing month end closing to be performed without disrupting daily operations.

Though comprehensive
and powerful, Risk Manager remains simple to
install and maintain. All data,
including correspondence items, image files (pictures
and documents), archive copies of ACH and
positive pay extract files, and third-party bill
review import files are stored in the SQL Server
database. There is only one file to backup which
makes the potential for data loss extremely low.
Unlike many older claim administration
applications, Risk Manager was initially developed
for use on personal computers. As a result, its
user interface takes advantage of and compliments the
user friendly environment
associated with desk top computing. Feed back from our clients, always encouraged, has also been a significant source of ideas to optimize procedures for searching and retrieving information. Both the keyboard and mouse are equally supported for navigation and data entry.
Risk Manager was developed using industry
standard tools for software development,
including Microsoft Visual Basic, .NET, SQL Server,
and Crystal Reports. Many organizations already
use these products reducing out-of-pocket costs and
allowing them to leverage their existing skills
base. This ensures that Risk Manager can be
scaled to meet the needs of any size organization.
ERIC Systems offers Risk Manager as an
"off-the-shelf" application for claims administration
. All versions of the program have the same
set of features. Additional capabilities, not of
interest or applicable to all users, may be added by
purchasing optional modules. Our support policy
is in that we offer continuous distribution of
updates and enhancements to all users
with a current technical support agreement.
