Deltek Analyst Amanda White reports.
As promised, Deltek’s health care and social services team is kicking off a blog series centered on our recently released report, “Evolving Health Insurance Exchanges.” The report provides an in-depth analysis of states and their steps toward implementing these one-stop shops. It also provides high-level recommendations for vendors trying to get ahead in the game.
Blogs this week will touch on topics such as all-payer claims data (APCD) and its role in the insurance exchange initiative, integrated eligibility, upcoming quality assurance initiatives, states’ progress in implementation/procurement, and more! Today’s blog explores a few major milestones reached by two states out West.
Last week, California released the long-awaited request for proposals (RFP) for the California Healthcare Eligibility, Enrollment and Retention System (CalHEERS). The RFP’s release comes as no surprise, as California has been a consistent leader in the insurance exchange effort and was the first state to establish legislation for the system. So far, California has received more than $40 million in federal funding.
