QualChoice of Arkansas Selects TriZetto's Fraud, Waste and Abuse Services

Detection, Investigation, Recovery and Prevention Services Will Help Prevent Claims Overpayments

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. - February 11, 2008 - The TriZetto Group Inc. (NASDAQ: TZIX) today announced that QualChoice of Arkansas, the state's second-largest managed care company and health benefits administrator, has selected Trizetto's comprehensive suite of fraud, waste and abuse services. These services will help QualChoice identify, recover and subsequently prevent claims overpayments resulting from fraud and abuse.

"Fraud, waste and abuse continues to present a challenge to claim payers across the country," said Michael Stock, president and CEO of QualChoice of Arkansas. "TriZetto has provided us with customized fraud prevention services that tie into our existing benefit safeguard programs, and are greatly assisting us in meeting our challenges."

QualChoice selected TriZetto based on the company's extensive industry expertise and integration of fraud prevention with TriZetto's Facets® core administration system, of which QualChoice has been a long-time user.

"This new contract demonstrates the need and desire for health plans to use technologies and other resources to improve fraud detection and resolution," said Robert McGinley, vice-president, detection and recovery services, at Plan Data Management, a division of TriZetto. "Since the fraud prevention services are linked with the core administration products, TriZetto provides a solution that enables payers to manage risk associated with fraud, waste and abuse in an effective and efficient manner."
