Deloitte
Consulting has been contract awarded by the Oregon Health Authority $18.4
million contract to oversee Cover Oregon’s transition to the federal
health exchange.
Deloitte will act as a system integrator
for both the federal switch and the transfer of technology for Medicaid
enlistment from Cover Oregon to the Health Authority.
The transition is likely to be done by
Nov. 15, the outset of the next open enlistment period. The contract has
very stringent oversight and accountability to assure the vendor
delivers, says, Tina Edlund, who is overseeing the transition for Gov.
John Kitzhaber.
The contract terms involves
accountability and oversight activities, with payments made only upon
state consent of deliverables. Even more, the state will inhibit an
amount to assure the system continues to perform as designated.
It’s a blunt contradiction to Cover
Oregon’s IT extensively criticized contract with Oracle Corp., which was
formed on time and materials. The state and Oracle are enmeshed in a
dispute, which might lead to court, over who was responsible for the
website’s issues.Read complete story at http://www.tendersontime.com/blog-detail/deloitte-bags-184-million-projectspect-cover-oregon-transfer-107.php
