customizable handling of millions of HL7 messages per day, evaluation of 
thousands of clinician created business rules, and reasoning over 
hundreds of thousands of patient data facts to provide near-real-time 
surveillance.

The use of Rules and Business Process Management are a focal point for

BPM to help change both the administrative and clinical environments. 
This session will look at the Medicaid Information Technology
