Quality at Scale

CMS needed to track and report healthcare quality metrics across more than 1 million providers nationwide. The existing systems struggled with the volume of data, evolving compliance requirements, and the complexity of coordinating releases across a large multi-vendor ecosystem supporting Healthcare.gov.

At the core of the challenge was the need to establish consistent quality measurement standards across multiple healthcare programs — including Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS), Hospital Quality Reporting, and the Quality Payment Program — each drawing from disparate data sources with different schemas, validation rules, and submission timelines. Without a unified approach, CMS risked inconsistent reporting that could affect provider reimbursement and program integrity.

  • Track and report quality performance metrics for over 1 million healthcare providers
  • Integrate data from multiple CMS quality programs and reporting streams
  • Ensure compliance with evolving CMS quality measurement standards
  • Compress release cycles from 6 months to meet accelerating program demands
  • Coordinate development across 10+ integrated vendor teams

Automated Delivery Pipeline

We built scalable reporting systems with automated data pipelines and a configurable compliance rules engine — enabling CMS to adapt to changing quality standards while compressing release cycles from 6 months to just 6 weeks through DevSecOps best practices. Our multi-vendor DevOps integration established shared CI/CD pipelines, automated regression testing, and coordinated release automation across all vendor teams — ensuring that every deployment was validated end-to-end before reaching production.

  • Built scalable quality reporting systems capable of processing metrics for 1M+ providers
  • Implemented automated data pipelines for ingesting and validating quality measures
  • Developed configurable compliance rules engine adapting to changing CMS requirements
  • Compressed release cycles from 6 months to 6 weeks through DevSecOps automation
  • Established cross-vendor integration framework enabling seamless multi-team delivery
