Document Management Solutions for Benefit Funds Administration

Datamation has more than 30 years of experience providing services and systems to help benefit funds, including third party administered funds and multiemployer funds subject to Taft-Hartley compliance, with streamlined document management and workflow systems.

We work with fund administrators and managers to analyze an organization’s documents, processes, and data, and design a customized solution specifically for your organization.

This can include all facets of going paperless, including:

  • Scanning backfile paper and microfilm records
  • Document management systems for easy storage and retrieval of documents
  • Workflow solutions to take your processes to the next level
  • Integration to your current systems to drive productivity
  • Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to eliminate repetitive tasks

Our services can image-enable the benefit administration software you use today. Solutions include on-premise as well as outsourced cloud-based platforms.

What Does This Mean to Me?

It means that you can pull up all your files immediately without having to leave your desk, which saves you time and means that you’ll never lose a document. And depending on your preferences, it also means that you can access these documents without having to log in to another application.

And audits? Our customers benefit from audits that take 80% less time than before they scanned their files and implemented a solution.

A Datamation solution also provides:

  • Immediate recovery of space taken up by filing cabinets
  • Elimination of the need of off-site box storage
  • No more misfiling and costly retrieval
  • Minimal hardware and software expenditures
  • No need for ongoing IT support
  • Implementation is as little as 24 hours
  • Automated disaster recovery
  • And for some solutions, unlimited users with remote access to all documents

Record Retention and Best Practices for Benefit Funds

Does your fund have a record retention policy? If so, when was the last time it was updated? We teamed up with software partner ISSI Systems for a webinar about how to create a document retention policy and the easiest way to manage your records. Check out the video below or read the blog post.

Benefit Fund Document Management Case Study

We worked with a benefit fund office in Chicago with 10,000 members to customize a document management workflow system for their specific needs. This system eliminates 6,000 man hours of wasted time each year searching for documents and processing claims.

While most document requests once took 15 minutes each, they now take 15 seconds or less. Some requests would take 2-6 hours to retrieve from a dusty file room in the basement, sometimes only to find that they were lost.

Misplaced paperwork is both a headache and a violation of the Pension Protection Act. Having unsecured medical-related information in file rooms and cabinets is a HIPAA violation. The organization is now compliant with both.

The Result: with a document management and workflow system from Datamation, every piece of paper is digitized and managed in one system, is instantly accessible, and is fully compliant with all document-related regulations.
