One platform for members, contributions, benefits, claims, and reimbursements.
GASI -- Gestione Assicurazioni Sanitarie Integrative -- is web-based management platform for administrators of a supplementary healthcare fund, a benevolent scheme or a mutual society. It brings members, contributions, cover and reimbursements together in one place, and keeps membership validity, cover and payments under control as work is done.
The fund grows, claims multiply, the margin for error does not.
A simple question, ten minutes of searching
A member calls: «is this treatment reimbursed?». To answer, staff check the member record in one archive, contributions in another, cover in an email, and cross-reference it all by hand. Multiply that by thousands of members and minutes become days.
Money leaving the fund by mistake
A reimbursement paid twice, a claim settled outside cover, a payment to a member behind on contributions. One moment’s inattention is enough: the money really does leave the fund, and someone has to explain to the board an outflow that should never have happened.
Data files rejected by major funds
Contributions, positions and reimbursements have to be exchanged with the major national bodies (formats such as Fondo EST, Fondo FAST, UniSalute), often retyped by hand. One typing error and the file is rejected: here the error is not just costly, it stops the process.
Year-end reconciliations that do not add up
When the accounts are kept apart from day-to-day transactions, closing the books turns into a backward hunt for errors, made up of nights and weekends — leaving the worry of signing off figures nobody is fully sure of.
Positions, data flows and accounts in a single system.
GASI keeps every member’s position — contributions, cover, reimbursements and their history — in one up-to-date source that the whole team works from, even across different sites.
Everything in one view
Member records, plans, contributions, cover and reimbursement history at a glance: who is up to date, what is covered, which reimbursement has already been paid.
Checks on membership, cover and payments
The system checks that membership is valid, that the treatment is covered and that contributions are up to date, flagging anything that does not add up before the claim goes any further.
Automatic exchange with the major funds
Those flows travel on the industry’s official data formats (Fondo EST, FAST, UniSalute) without copying anything by hand: no typing errors, no rejected files to redo. The same applies to the reinsurer, who receives documentation straight from GASI.
Reconciliation, accounts and balance sheet
Cash book, invoice recording, payment schedules and the balance sheet, with contributions allocated across cover periods. Reconciliation matches payments received against cover, including with the reinsurer.
From member to balance sheet, the full path.
Records & plans
Members, dependants and health plans with their cover, in a single up-to-date source.
Contributions & reconciliation
Contributions received are cross-checked automatically against positions: clear who has paid and who is behind.
Reimbursement request
The member’s request enters the system with record, plan and cover already linked, and documents are logged and archived there.
Checks & claim settlement
Before the claim is settled, the system checks that the treatment falls within the plan and that the position is up to date.
Data files & accounts
Data exchange with other bodies on the industry’s standard formats, with transactions flowing through to the accounts and the balance sheet.
GASI in brief
What software is needed to manage members, contributions and reimbursements for a healthcare fund?
It is web management software built specifically for supplementary healthcare: member records, contributions, plans and reimbursement cases sit in a single archive. It is used by healthcare funds, benevolent schemes and mutual societies.
How are reimbursements paid twice or outside cover avoided?
Every claim goes through a check on membership, cover and contribution position: anything that does not add up is held and flagged, instead of going through to payment.
How is data exchanged with major funds (Fondo EST, FAST, UniSalute)?
The exchange runs on the industry’s official formats, automatically: no copying by hand and no files rejected for a wrong character.
How is members’ health data protected?
GASI is a web application: everyone who signs in — fund staff, companies and members — has their own credentials and sees only the part that concerns them. Because health data is involved, processing falls under Article 9 of the GDPR, and access and permissions are configured together with the fund.
Does GASI need to be installed? Can it be used from more than one site?
GASI is purely web-based: it opens in the browser from any workstation, with several people and from several sites, with nothing to install on individual machines.
How is a claim and its submission to the reinsurer managed?
Claim documents are captured and logged inside GASI, where they stay archived electronically. Documentation is sent to the reinsurer from that same archive.
Let’s look at it on a real case.
