Healthcare Evolution
HP Helps State Transform to More Robust IT Environment to
Support Ongoing Reforms
PALO ALTO, CA -- December 3, 2013 -- HP Enterprise Services
today announced that the Ohio Department of Medicaid has signed a
$180 million agreement for HP (NYSE: HPQ) to continue to manage and
enhance the Ohio Medicaid Information Technology System (MITS) and
transform the hardware platform on which it runs.
Under the terms of the four-year agreement, which includes a
pair of two-year options, HP will help ensure that MITS is a
flexible, scalable and stable system. It will support federal
policy changes, including the Affordable Care Act and state
requirements, and has the potential for up to 600,000 additional
Medicaid recipients forecast for the coming years.
HP will package the MITS hardware, monitoring and software as a
service to provide agility and scale in facing future
challenges.
HP also will provide applications development and management
services to help improve the state's ability to handle growth in
recipients and claims with accuracy, timeliness and uninterrupted
service by adding integrated eligibility. HP also will deploy
federally mandated International Classification of Diseases - 10th
Revision (ICD-10) medical coding features as required by law.
The technology refresh includes replacing more than 450 servers
with HP Integrity Superdome 2 Servers. It also includes the
implementation of monitoring tools such as HP ArcSight and
increased security with HP software, HP TippingPoint network
security, and the HP Encryption SAN Switch. Last year, MITS
processed about 127 million provider claims and encounters worth
more than $11 billion.
"States nationwide must prepare for federal- and
state-driven program changes with systems they can count on to
support their needs well into the future," said Susan Arthur, vice
president, U.S. Health and Life Sciences Industry, HP Enterprise
Services. "Now that the Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services has certified the system, the HP team will
continue to create a more robust platform as the state provides a
quality Medicaid program."
HP is the nation's largest provider of Medicaid and Medicare
process management services, administering $140 billion in benefits
a year. It serves as the fiscal agent or principal IT provider for
Medicaid in 19 states. HP's U.S. healthcare experience spans payer,
