EOHHS (EHS) is developing a strategic plan to streamline and combine its current eligibility and enrollment processes through the One Health initiative.

The system will be modernized on a modular basis, t o provide a single point of access for individuals and/or families applying for public health insurance benefits. The modernization will provide common data storage and eligibility determination processes and rules for all Medicaid programs. To develop a plan for the implementation of a single point of access for benefits, EOHHS is undertaking an intensive effort to map the current state of Medicaid and MA21 operations and the systems that support those operations then will port those operations and systems to a new infrastructure.
