Automated Benefits Signs Contract With Leading TPA


New Contract to Increase Autoben Claim Volume by 30%


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Dec. 19, 2007) - Automated Benefits Corp. (TSX VENTURE:AUT), is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Automated Benefits Inc. (Autoben), has signed a new contract with a Third Party Administrator (TPA), who will use the Autoben software for the administration and adjudication of medical and dental benefits for their group insurance clients.

The TPA will transfer their current clients, numbering in excess of 10,000 employee certificates, onto the Autoben system, as well as any new clients procured in the future beginning in the New Year. The TPA had previously been utilizing another service provider for over a decade to pay claims and will regain control of the payment process by bringing all of it in house with the Autoben software. The addition of these employee certificates to the Autoben software represents an increase of over 30% to the existing claims volume processed by Automated Benefits Inc.

"We are now attracting partners that are regarded as leaders in the Canadian Group Benefits market and this new contract is a significant milestone for Autoben", states John Jackson, President, Autoben. "Not only is Autoben's reputation enhanced by attracting such credible partners but the volume of business that this new account represents will increase our annual paid claims totals to being in league with a top 10 insurance company in Canada".
