SLI Selected to Provide IV&V and QA Services as Alabama Modernizes Medicaid System

The Alabama Medicaid Agency (AMA), an agency of the State of Alabama, has selected SLI Global Solutions, Inc. (SLI) to deliver Independent Verification and Validation/Quality Assurance services for the Recipient Subsystem Modernization Project.  AMA was notified on January 21, 2011 of federal approval from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) of Alabama’s selection of SLI.

This 24-month, $2.2 million contract provides Alabama with system development and implementation oversight services beginning in March 2011 and extending through February 2013.  SLI’s initial contribution is to review the Agency’s Recipient Subsystem Design, Development, and Implementation (DDI) RFP and Proposal Evaluation Plan before they are sent to CMS for approval.  Once the DDI vendor is selected, SLI will provide ongoing project management, functional and technical subject matter expertise, and system testing services.

The State of Alabama has over one million citizens who receive Medicaid benefits, enabling them to obtain quality health care that they would otherwise not be able to afford.  “We are proud to be able to assist the Alabama Medicaid Agency in ensuring that this new system meets the needs of the State and ultimately this vital program for the people of Alabama," said Steven Esposito, SLI’s Vice President of Government Services.  “This is the second major contract in the past two years, where SLI has partnered with Alabama to improve the delivery of health and human service IT projects.  SLI’s contribution on this project is to help ensure that the project achieves its goals, minimizes risk, and leverages the State’s and vendors’ best practices and lessons learned to deliver a high-quality solution on time and within budget."
