Maine's Health and Human Services Department has selected a Pennsylvania-based company to manage the MaineCare computer system. Negotiations with Unisys Corp. are expected to be completed this month.
...... The MaineCare billing system was plagued with problems including providers getting incorrect payments or no payments after the state switched to a new system to handle claims in January 2005. Privatizing the service will help bring the state system into compliance with federal standards, according to DHHS officials.
