Massachusetts Paid Family and Medical Leave

PFML was a new legislatively mandated state project that kicked off in January 2020 to provide Massachusetts residents the ability to apply for and receive payment for family and medical leave. Focus was part of the initial core team at project kickoff, and worked with our prime contracting partner (Nava PBC) and other stakeholders to staff project teams across product, engineering, DevOps and technical support.

Our staff led delivery of various critical product and engineering milestones including the payments workflow, department of revenue data processing, approval workflow integration, and core API and cloud architecture. This work required coordination across numerous department agencies and vendor teams.

Since its launch in 2021, the program has paid over $1.3 billion in leave benefits.

Healthcare

CDC ReportStream

As part of the pandemic response, the CDC was tasked with improving how Covid test results were reported and delivered to public health agencies. A key part of that effort was the ReportStream tool, which was responsible for receiving, routing and delivering Covid test results. Since then, we’ve worked alongside our partners to augment the application to support sending and receiving any kind of test results or test orders as well as delivering this data in a wide variety of health specifications including HL7 and FHIR.
