ISO Insurance Forms Now Available Automatically For ITP Software Customers

New York City, March 8, 2004 - Aia Software, the source for affordable data-driven document software, announces the availability of automated ISO electronic insurance forms for users of Aia's ITP Intelligent Text Processing software. The Insurance Services Organization (ISO), National Council Compensation Insurance (NCCI) and American Association of Insurance Services (AAIS) supply insurance carriers with data, forms and other services, and now these industry leading forms are available as Word documents through automatic subscription for sites using ITP output processing. Aia Software, through a co-marketing alliance with a licensed provider of ISO, NCCI and AAIS forms, offers an Electronic Forms Library Service compatible with ITP Enterprise output processing software.

The forms-intensive insurance industry benefits from Aia forms automation services through faster response, the most current materials, and reduced manual intervention. Companies that do not have an automated subscription service must get standardized forms and manually alter the Word documents to meet the needs of their systems and lines of business. Aia delivers an automated solution specific to ITP, thus saving time and reducing manual labor for ITP customers, while providing a competitive advantage and helping them avoid risk and liability from outdated forms. With the forms service, Aia offers insurance customers quick implementation even of totally new forms, delivering in two weeks what it would take months to build. The service provides a 72-hour turn-around for any new forms that the Bureaus implement.

The subscription service also provides coverage forms, notices and attachments not available from a carrier's associated insurance bureaus, such as state-mandated auto and workers comp claim forms, declaration pages, posting notices and carrier forms. Aia makes these and many other forms available automatically through its designated third party subscription service provider. In addition, the Aia forms subscription service supplies NCCI and AAIS forms to help insurers maintain the most current, accurate versions without have to reformat or recreate documents to meet their specific needs.

ITP software is widely used by insurers for comprehensive output processing, and the subscription service easily and quickly makes forms available to any user of a proprietary or commercial insurance system having ITP as its output processing solution. The electronic forms are provided as ITP/Word output documents and defined with "fill" fields specific to the insurance processing solution that the carrier is using. ITP is the integrated output system in the widely deployed Genius Insurance processing system by Rebus/IS, so now Genius users are assured of easy access to the forms they need through the subscription service.

Customers rely on Aia ITP software for personalized internal and customer communications and correspondence driven from any database for on-demand, batch or browser-based output for multichannel delivery. ITP fully supports the range of data-driven applications specific to the insurance industry, including policy generation and documentation, management and financial reporting, and renewal notices. The software integrates seamlessly with typical insurance application environments such as Rebus/Genius, Genelco/LIFE+, and LeanAPPS/LeanAppsLife.
