PROJECT BACKGROUND
The client is a Stake Level Department of Health and Human Services (Sponsor: Bureau of Information Systems) which is transitioning to a new Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS).  The State Dept of Health And Human Services (DHHS) is replacing its MMIS with a more efficient, modern system that will reduce the administrative burden on providers.  The State DHHS is using a step-by-step, modular process to transition from the MMIS to the Replacement Medicaid Management Information System (RMMIS).

This includes the implementation of multiple systems and service modules. Some of these modules have already been implemented, including the accounting and finance module, business intelligence system (BIS), pharmacy benefits administrator (PBA) module, and the third-party liability (TPL) module.

The project for replacement of the State’s MMIS is a major undertaking and requires a major transformation of culture, processes, and technology. This project also supports the State’s Medicaid Management Department’s transition from primarily a fee-for-service payer of claims towards a program and policy driver for health outcomes primarily through managed care programs.

The Replacement MMIS project is a multi-year effort to replace the State’s aging MMIS and related applications with more modern capabilities along with corresponding business operations services.  The goal of the RMMIS program will be incremental and modular in nature with a focus on configurable and scalable integrations, which allow for more flexibility and reduces the time and cost necessary to respond to federal and state enhancements.  The major sub-project components of the Replacement MMIS Program are:

• Administrative Services Organization (ASO) for medical claims processing
• Pharmacy Benefits Administrator (PBA) for pharmacy claims processing
• Dental Administrative Services Organization (DASO) for dental claims processing
• Business Intelligence System
• Third-Party Liability
• Accounting and Finance – payment of medical, pharmacy, dental and MCO payments as well as other financial processing through the State SAP solution, SCEIS
• System Integration and Operations – a multi-vendor system integration and operations implementation

The current payment process involves payment processing in the current legacy MMIS and processing through a variety of non-integrating and manual processes. A key strategy of the RMMIS project is to remove these inefficiencies and transition all Medicaid payments to the State of SC SAP solution, SCEIS.  This position will primarily support the Accounting and Finance project by providing expertise in business analytics and draw from experience in previous financial SAP implementations.
