Landacorp today announced the public release of CareRadius suite, the only care management application of its kind to successfully achieve a large-scale, live implementation.

In an exclusive agreement with TriWest Healthcare Alliance, a U.S. Department of Defense healthcare partner supporting 2.7 million members, Landacorp conducted a beta implementation in order to ensure the product would be thoroughly vetted and refined for the larger market.

CareRadius, a Web-based application, proved its ability to achieve rapid integration. At TriWest, more than 500 users were live on CareRadius within the first week.

"We saw that the industry was experiencing challenges in implementing new, unproven products, so Landacorp decided to conduct a formal beta before engaging the larger market," said Jay Dunlap, General Manager of Landacorp, a SHPS Company. "We could not have found a better beta partner than TriWest. Through their collaboration and flexibility, we have jointly accomplished a very exciting first for the industry."

CareRadius is designed to adapt quickly in an industry facing unique economic pressures and uncertainties. The intuitive user interface enables non-IT staff to execute changes to the system as needed.

"The CareRadius suite of applications is very much in alignment with both our business and technical goals and objectives," stated Rick Green, Vice President and Chief Information Officer for TriWest. "We are very much looking forward to deriving the full value of this very strategic implementation."

"TriWest serves a diverse Department of Defense population, and we are excited about the potential for this system to contribute to an improvement in health outcomes, increase in provider and beneficiary satisfaction, and hopefully to a reduction in administrative costs," added Dr. Frank Maguire, Senior Vice President Health Care Services and Chief Medical Officer for TriWest.
