What if paper forms could be processed at the same speed as digital forms? What if their contents could be automatically entered in the same database as the digital forms? Medicaid agencies could analyze data in near real-time and drive actionable insights on a single dashboard. Whether a provider submits claims electronically or on paper, the claim could be adjudicated using the same process and analyzed the same way, saving both time and money. AI and ML services from AWS allow Medicaid agencies to create this streamlined solution. Moreover, AWS enables the adoption of solutions like this by providing no code or low code serverless services. Read this post to learn more
