DALLAS, Jan. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Affiliated Computer Services,
Inc. (NYSE: ACS), a premier provider of business process outsourcing and
information technology solutions, announced today that it has signed a
five-year, $8.7 million contract with the Pennsylvania Department of Public
Welfare (DPW) to provide a three-component Medical Management Review System
(MMRS) to manage its care management, prior authorization, and case
management functions.
    The ACS SmartPA Tool provides the Commonwealth with the innovative
platform to launch this first-of-a-kind MMRS solution. SmartPA has an
established and proven track record in ten other complex state Medicaid
programs.
    SmartPA is driven by flexible, table-driven criteria that the
Department will use for specific prior authorization, case management, and
review parameters authorized by the Commonwealth; criteria that can be
easily revised over time to meet needs as they evolve. It will generate
immediate cost savings and quality improvement, provide immediate feedback
to providers on specific claim and clinical issues that result in a
recommendation for approval or denial, and maximize efficiency and access
to data for DPW users. Additionally, it will provide web interface for DPW
users to access patient-specific information in order to quickly and
accurately process provider requests. The result will be a new level of
integration and coordination across all elements of the DPW care management
continuum.
    ACS is partnering with CaseNET to deliver its best-in-class case
management solutions to DPW.
    "This Medical Management Review System is a first-of-its-kind system in
the market that will allow government and commercial payors to coordinate
and integrate across its enterprise all phases of a comprehensive care
management program; case management, prior authorization, concurrent
review, and issues and call tracking," said Christopher Deelsnyder, Senior
Vice President, ACS Government Healthcare Solutions.
    ACS is a national leader in state healthcare program administration,
offering a full spectrum of systems and complementary services through an
integrated solution. From care management solutions and child health
programs to pharmacy benefits management and traditional Medicaid fiscal
agent services, ACS has a proven track record and extensive program
