PayFlex Claim Submission System
- Client: PayFlex
- Date: 11/2004-1/2005
Project Goals
- Provide the employees of PayFlex clients with web-based claims submission
Responsibilities
- Integration of web claim processing into existing home-grown J2EE Intranet environment
- Implementation of client-defined business rules to adjudicate claim validity
- Integration with legacy claims database
Results
-
Delivered working/tested code (project contract was completed prior to production deployment)
-
The initial production deployment crashed due to database locking conflicts between the new system’s JDBC driver and legacy fat clients
- Exigence had highlighted this potential issue but the call by the in-house architect was to ignore it
- Exigence later came back and worked closely with the JDBC driver vendor to reverse engineer the legacy fat client locking semantics, based on byte-level analysis of the legacy database’s flat files, and resolved the locking issues
