Optum Integrated Eligibility Services

Simplify the eligibility experience for Medicaid and human services programs while enhancing efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Modernize your eligibility systems for greater care delivery

States depend on modern eligibility systems to manage complex benefit administration. Systems must be capable of process application handling, data verification, eligibility assessments, benefit distribution and financial management.

Outdated, fragmented systems can complicate policy updates and make system enhancements labor-intensive. Obsolete technology and siloed data sources challenge the ability to meet current operational needs and derive valuable analytics and insights.

We can help you modernize your eligibility system. Streamlined processes and systems allow you to continue delivering essential benefits and quality care to all eligible individuals, efficiently and effectively.
