The CASE advantage

Article Abstract:

Aetna improved the quality of its information systems by implementing a computer-aided systems engineering development environment (CASE) for its information technology. AETNA chose Texas Instruments' Information Engineering Facility as its CASE tool and James Martin Associates' Information Engineering Method to engineer information technology. Using CASE, Aetna created an on-line database that provides information to Aetna Health Plan providers. The database allows Aetna headquarters and field personnel and the medical groups that belong the plan to access Aetna information.
