    Summary: The membership department of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas (BCBSKS) includes Group, Eligibility, Finance, and Reporting systems. I was working in the Finance team but now working in the Eligibility Team. The Group system is responsible for defining and maintaining the benefit product structure and the member groups. Eligibility is responsible for maintaining enrollment while the Finance system generates invoices and processes the payments and related activities. Reporting, as the name indicates, creates periodic reports. With this project, all of these areas will be moving to C++ & JAVA / DB2-based systems.

    Finance primarily depends on the Group and Eligibility areas for information about who is to be billed. Group information is available only through an interface and direct access to the database is not available. Eligibility information can be accessed from the database directly, but updates must go through an interface. Apart from this, there is a need to communicate certain changes (group benefit changes, eligibility changes, etc) between the systems.

    The finance system does all the processing through COBOL programs and an ADF-based online system. The goal of this project is to rewrite the entire system to run in C++ & JAVA environments and with a WEB interface. With the changes in the Benefit Repository System, the current business model and processes will also be impacted.
