eligibility module.

claim transaction in real time which will be processed by the patient’s pharmacy benefit manager and in real time

provide a claim response to the medical provider.

Cross Benefit Batch Claims Submission – The ability for a medical billing system to submit batches of X12

based claims in their normal workflow which are then submitted as NCPDP real-time pharmacy claims to the

appropriate pharmacy benefit manager.

Cross Benefit Electronic Remittance Advice Processing – The ability to receive electronic remittance advice

transactions from pharmacy benefit managers and convert them to be able to be applied against claims

submitted from medical claims systems.

medical and pharmacy benefits,” says Jack Guinan, CEO of TransactRx. “We see our Cross Benefit
