[State Entity Name] Human Services Department [Description of Work] Architectural Design & Training for WPS & WESB Applications The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) is one of the largest payers of health care in Minnesota. DHS provides health care services to more than 600,000 Minnesotans through a combination of federal and state health care programs, including Minnesotas Medicaid program, Medical Assistance (MA), and MinnesotaCare (a subsidized health care program for people who live in Minnesota and no not have access to health insurance). These combined health care programs are jointly referred to as Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP). The Departments Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS) pays MHCP expenditures in excess of $5 billion annually. MHCP administration is a joint state-county-tribal effort, with county and tribal human services agency staff performing the intake, eligibility determination and case management for the majority of MHCP clients. Program eligibility is determined by approximately 2500 workers at the State level, at the 87 counties and at the tribal level. At the current time, health care eligibility is determined using two DHS legacy systems for MA, and a combination of manual processes and a legacy system for the MinnesotaCare Program. The Health Care Operations Division (HCO) is phasing in Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) as it modernizes its MMIS. It recently installed a WebSphere Process Server V7 (WPS) and WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (WESB) as the center of this move to SOA. HCO is seeking an individual or individuals to assist in defining architectural patterns and project development methods utilizing the WPS and WESB technologies. This individual(s) must be at the expert level in both technologies as well as having the interpersonal skills to mentor and provide knowledge transfer to key HCO employees.
