CMS’ Perspective
1.Medical information follows the consumer; i.e., they are at the center of their care
2. Consumers chose providers based on clinical performance results
3. Clinicians have complete patient history, computerized ordering and electronic reminders
4. Quality initiatives measure performance and drive quality-based competition
5. From transactions to actions-- machines talk to machines; people focus on services; goal is health outcomes improvement

CMS Places a High Value On Cross-Agency Data Sharing
• Medicaid administrators lacked a comprehensive view of their world -- MMIS was not keeping pace with their rapidly changing world
• CMS decided to re-tool the MMIS into MITA -- the Medicaid IT Architecture– Web-based, patient-centric,
interoperable system based on industry IT standards
– Enterprise-oriented, rather than organization
– Data shared across boundaries– Provides basis for HIT/E -- EHR, eRx,
PHR

Medicaid Information Technology Architecture (MITA)
![Page 9: CMS MITA Presentation 10/16/2008](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/5493fa1bb47959564d8b49e5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What Is MITA?
• MITA is a FRAMEWORK
• MITA is a TOOL KIT
• MITA is a ROAD MAP• NOTE: MITA is NOT a
one-size-fits-all approach
Each State builds its own IT solution based on standards, models and processes contained within the MITA Framework that have been developed with the help of all States and the IT industry
![Page 10: CMS MITA Presentation 10/16/2008](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/5493fa1bb47959564d8b49e5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Key Principles--MITA• Support State-driven program
requirements as well as Federal• Provide Medicaid managers at all
levels with robust data sets thatsignificantly enhance their ability to focus on outcomes
• Business-driven enterprise architecture• Commonalities and differences
co-exist peacefully• Standards first• Built-in Security and Privacy• Data consistency across the enterprise
![Page 11: CMS MITA Presentation 10/16/2008](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/5493fa1bb47959564d8b49e5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
MITA’s Goals• Provide State Medicaid agencies with
a powerful analytical tool• Improve health care outcomes• Align with Federal Health
Architecture • Ensure patient-centric views not
constrained by organizational barriers
• Make use of common IT and data standards
![Page 12: CMS MITA Presentation 10/16/2008](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/5493fa1bb47959564d8b49e5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
MITA’s Objectives
• Foster interoperability between and within State Medicaid organizations
• Provide web-based access and integration while respecting patient privacy and confidentiality concerns
• Support software reusability with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software
• Integrate seamlessly clinical and public health data
![Page 13: CMS MITA Presentation 10/16/2008](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/5493fa1bb47959564d8b49e5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
MITA’s Orientation• Business-driven service oriented architecture
solution (focus on supporting biz not tech)• Firmly grounded in enterprise architecture
principles (in use by many other industries)• Defines a business transformation over a five
year and long-term (10 years and greater) timeframe
• Includes a technical architecture and a transition strategy to enable the business transformation

How Would CMS Handle Funding in a Collaborative Environment
that Focuses on Interoperability?
Three Scenarios and
e-Rx Data Flow
![Page 15: CMS MITA Presentation 10/16/2008](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/5493fa1bb47959564d8b49e5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
E-Health (e.g., eRx) Schematic
Note: The following discussion is a conceptual analysis of how CMS may be able to support e-Health activities using MMIS funding. While some of this thinking has been approved at various levels, final decisions will
depend upon specific conditions yet to be determined

Examples
• eRx
• EHR/EMR
• PHR

NON-MEDICAID AGENCY
DW HW/SW
ACTIONS:
1. Medicaid Agency builds a data warehouse (DW) and web portal (WP) as a part of its MMIS.
2. Non-Medicaid agency builds its own DW and WB.
3. Both parties agree to build an electronic bridge linking both DWs and WPs
CURRENT FFP AVAILABILITY:
1. Medicaid Agency receives 90% FFP to build the DW/WP, and 75% FFP to operate them
2. Non-Medicaid Agency uses own funds to build and operate DW/WP
3. Jointly built electronic bridge is paid for by both parties per Federal CAP Principles. Medicaid receives enhanced 90/75 FFP rates for its share of costs.

DW HW/SW ACTIONS:
1. Medicaid Agency builds a data warehouse (DW) and web portal (WP) as a part of its MMIS.
2. Non-Medicaid agency/provider buys own equipment to access web as well as trains staff on its use.
CURRENT FFP AVAILABILITY:
1. Medicaid Agency receives 90% FFP to build the DW/WP, and 75% FFP to operate them
2. Non-Medicaid Agency/provider uses their own funds for their access ramps to DW/WP

Other State Agency
DW HW/SW
ACTIONS:
1. Medicaid Agency accesses DW/WP through its MMIS
2. Changes/enhancements may be necessary to enhance use of DW/WP within MMIS.
CURRENT FFP AVAILABILITY:
1. Medicaid Agency receives 90% FFP to enhance, 75% FFP to operate its internal requirements with outside DW/WP
2. Changes to the outside DW/WP specific to Medicaid matched at 50% because it’s not part of the MMIS
3. Provider/Other Users costs not matched with MMIS FFP
