Job Description:

Name of Project: PMAS - Provider Network Adequacy

Design, implement, and maintain an effective performance management and data analytics system to serve the HHS system.

Current project scope includes a data strategy assessment and development of the implementation advanced planning documents (I-APD) to secure the federal funding match for implementation. In addition, the scope includes the development of an implementation roadmap to support the agency 10-year roadmap, and enhancement and support of the performance management pilot.

The Department of Information Resources (DIR) requires the services of one (1) ArcGIS Server Administrator hereafter referred to as Worker, who meets the general qualification of Systems Analyst 3, Emerging Technologies, and the specifications outlined in this document for Health and Human Services Commission.

As the State of Texas continues to address the many aftereffects and changing service landscape of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly related to connecting clients with providers, it has become critical to rely on Medicaid Chip Services (MCS) to provide reliable, up to the minute data regarding provider and client locations in the state. As MCS works to provide this critical data to inform decision makers, health care administrators and citizens, the agency is experiencing serious limitations in the ability to efficiently and reliably provide the data due to a legacy of disparate systems and data that currently resides in numerous locations and databases across the agency. Sharing this vital data across all of these systems is inherently difficult, time-consuming, and requires resource intensive manual and inefficient processes. These cumbersome manual processes have a severe impact on Texas' ability to respond effectively to the new provider and client landscape prevent the loss of life.

MCS seeks to expand its desktop ArcGIS environment to a more robust, sustainable enterprise cloud platform to promote data sharing. This will help Medicaid identify where there are gaps in geographic coverage of Medicaid providers, as compared to client locations so that program can make adjustments to service areas, and also for Medicaid to publish geographic maps that better assist in connecting clients and providers. Currently they only have a desktop environment and cannot publish sensitive data to ESRI's public cloud offering due to it having PHI/PII. Without this being extended to an enterprise server environment, Medicaid will continue to struggle to make those vital connections for clients and providers.

All work products resulting from the project shall be considered "works made for hire" and are the property of the HHSC. HHSC may include pre-selection requirements that potential Vendors (and their Workers) submit to and satisfy criminal background checks as authorized by the Texas law. HHSC will pay no fees for interviews or discussions, which occur during the process of selecting a Worker(s).
