PLANO, Texas, May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Perot Systems (NYSE: PER)
today announced the release of Xcelys(TM) 5.0 Health Plan Core Administration
Software. Xcelys 5.0 software is a continuance of Perot Systems' strategy to
offer transformative healthcare technology solutions to the health plan
market.
Xcelys, formerly called PERADIGM software, will enable Perot Systems to
deliver increasing quality and benefits for health plan administration in
enterprise IT organizations, fulfilling its commitment to drive excellence in
health plan administration. With the capability to execute several extended
business functions, Xcelys software's functionality enhancements will increase
auto-adjudication and payment accuracy rates resulting in a reduced number of
claims held for manual pricing and processing.

to the members in their markets, while simultaneously keeping administrative
costs low. The new release of Xcelys delivers these tangible business
