Business Objects (Nasdaq:BOBJ)(Euronext Paris ISIN code: FR0004026250 - BOB), the world’s leading provider of business intelligence (BI) solutions, today announced that Bull Services will deploy BusinessObjects™ XI Release 2 to help the California Department of Health Services (CDHS) efficiently manage California’s $37 billion Medicaid program (known as “Medi-Cal”) and improve health care services for millions of residents.
Medi-Cal is the primary funding source for health care services provided to more than 6.6 million low-income adults and children, elderly, and disabled persons throughout California. CDHS is working with Bull Services to deploy a new business intelligence solution that will help support the State’s goals of achieving comprehensive health care reform, delivering high quality health care in the most cost-effective settings, emphasizing prevention and early intervention, improving health care outcomes, and uncovering and preventing fraud and abuse within the Medi-Cal program.
The business intelligence solution will enable the CDHS to conduct sophisticated trend analyses and predictive modeling designed to support streamlined operations while improving heath services for state residents. Examples of planned improvements include faster and easier access to information from multiple, disparate databases; tracking and monitoring individuals’ care and costs across overlapping human services programs; and the ability to analyze and predict how law and policy changes will impact costs.
“We have a long-standing and successful partnership with Bull Services, and they have been instrumental in the deployment of Business Objects BI solutions at many state and local government agencies throughout the country,” said John Tomaselli, vice president for government, education and healthcare at Business Objects. “We are pleased that Bull Services and the California Department of Health Services have put their trust in Business Objects to help transform how the state uses information to reduce costs and improve health services.”
“With a focus on state and local government, Bull Services has a rich history of working to optimize state Medicaid programs with quality business intelligence deployments,” said Jonathan Burbank, president and CEO of Bull Services. “We have turned to Business Objects time and time again for their innovative BI solutions, and know that we can rely on their trusted technology to help us meet and exceed our customers’ expectations for cost-saving and process-improving business intelligence.”
