  2. Webinar Outline • Context and Current Practice • Enrollment Standards • User Experience (UX) Design Project • Vertical and Horizontal Integration • Q & A

  3. Context • States vary… • ACA offers states opportunities • Challenges abound

  4. We Live in a Digital Society

  5. Current Practice

  6. Where Are We Today? • Significant simplification efforts • However, not widespread… • Impact of the recession • Best intentions

  14. Core Data Elements • Standardize to increase interoperability • Reviewed 34 programs in 10 states • Variation in data name, format and definition • Range of complexity in data harmonization • National Information Exchange Model selected as standard • Implementation approach

  15. Electronic Verifications • ACA §1411 requirement • Citizenship SSA • Income IRS • Legal status DHS • Standardized Web services exchange • Additional interfaces to Federal, State or other widely-available data sources • Federal reference software model CMS building Federal Data Services Hub
