import accounts and cases together

I need to be able to import data from another system to salesforce on a regular basis.  This data will contain new account info along with new case info.  Is there a way to get both in without it being too painful?

 

My current though process is to import the accounts along with a unique id number, export that same data to get the account ID's, then import the cases matching based on the unique id number.

 

It seems drawn out so I wonder if anyone else has tackled this before.
