CMS Certification Sample Clauses

CMS Certification. All State Eligibility and Enrollment (E&E) and E&E-related implementations must adhere to federal guidance for the State to receive enhanced federal funding for the operation of the E&E and other modular replacement projects. DSHS and the HHS Coalition will seek enhanced funding to the maximum extent possible and therefore the E&E solution, including the design, development, and implementation of the IE&E Platform, will undergo required certification as specified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Contractor shall fully support this process through all activities and artifacts requested by DSHS and the program's Quality Assurance (QA) and Independent Verification & Validation (IV&V) vendor(s), if used by the project. Refer to Conditions for Enhanced Funding per 42 CFR § 433.112 for a full list from CMS.

CMS Certification. While the SI effort will deliver vital functionality across NM HHS constituencies, a central stakeholder in the work is New Mexico’s Medicaid entity. The HHS2020 initiative will provide new functionality across HSD and benefit enterprise partners, including Aging and Long-Term Services Department (ALTSD), Children, Youth, and Families Department (CYFD), and Department of Health (DOH). A critical outcome of MMISR and the SI effort is CMS certification. The certification effort will require a great deal of time and resources to accomplish. All module contractors are required to fully and carefully plan for CMS certification and to appropriately dedicate staff to certification. Responses to this RFQ must acknowledge an understanding of the importance of certification and provide a quote that demonstrates readiness to effectively take on this critically important activity.

Many of the Addendum 18 MITA Business Area requirements (found in the procurement library) apply to the SI Contractor, including module integration, interfaces, security, orchestration, and data integrity. The selected contractor, in conjunction with the HSD Business Certification team, will ensure the requirements are met and evidence is provided to the State for CMS reviews. Because of the critical role of the SI, the selected contractor must work in close collaboration with State staff and other module contractors to assure successful integration and completion of each module’s certification requirements. Successful integration includes the completion of end to end testing of all requirements. Contractors must budget for resources to allocate their time working to ensure the certification checklist items have been satisfied and evidence is provided to the State for CMS certification reviews. CMS certification is a must-have outcome of the SI and its crucial role on the project. The SI Contractor will support CMS certification through the R2 Operational Milestone review and the R3 Final Certification review. Once the R3 review is completed, the SI contractor will be responsible for ensuring ongoing operational functionality of the entire HHS2020 enterprise in a state comparable to the R3 certified state.
