Kony Empowers Health Plan Members Everywhere with Updated Version of the Healthcare Industry’s Most Versatile Mobile App

ORLANDO – June 19, 2012 – Kony Solutions, Inc., the leading multi-channel application development platform and business applications provider, today announced a new version of its mobile healthcare application for payors looking to offer members end-to-end mobile applications and put secure health plan information at the patient’s fingertips, on any mobile device they want to use. Kony will demonstrate the new application at this week’s AHIP Institute 2012 event in Salt Lake City, June 20-22, booth #1326.

Kony Mobile Health Plan is a configurable and extensible app, built on industry best practices, that enables health plan members and covered dependents to find an urgent care doctor or pharmacy, view plan details and benefits, track and manage claims, and compare different health plan options.

New features of the updated application include:

· Graphical account summary and benefit details, including plan expense summary and account balance details by subscriber

· Graphical 3D ID Card by subscriber

· Individual and group health plan shopping, price comparison, and quotes

Kony is a leading provider of mobile solutions for the healthcare industry, with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield North Carolina, Independence Blue Cross, and Intermountain Healthcare among its customers.
