CNSI Names Renowned Medicaid Expert Bruce Greenstein As Vice President of Healthcare; Greenstein To Guide CNSI's Healthcare Product and Market Development Efforts

Posted on: Monday, 19 September 2005, 09:00 CDT

CNSI, the premier provider of IT business solutions for government and commercial enterprises, today announced a new addition to its management team. The company named former Associate Regional Administrator for the Division of Medicaid and Children's Health in the Boston regional office of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Bruce Greenstein as Vice President of Healthcare. Greenstein will play a critical role at CNSI providing guidance and direction for the company's healthcare offerings and identifying new market opportunities.

"CNSI prides itself on working with the best and the brightest to deliver premier, tailor-made technology solutions for its customers," said CNSI President B. Chatterjee. "In keeping with that tradition, we welcome Bruce's well-respected expertise in Medicaid administration and the impact he will have on our groundbreaking healthcare and Medicaid Management Information System offerings."

Greenstein began his career in healthcare at the state level under former Governor Chiles' Administration in Florida where his primary responsibilities included developing managed care plans, reorienting home and community-based services and streamlining the provision of long-term care services for the Florida Department of Elder Affairs.

Greenstein went on to serve under the Division of Medicaid and State Operations in CMS' Seattle Regional office, where he focused on Medicaid eligibility policy, waivers, welfare reform and Medicaid operations.

At the federal level, Greenstein then joined the U.S. Government Accountability Office's (GAO) Health Care Group in Seattle, where he co-authored blue book reports and Congressional testimony on Medicaid managed care and children's health screenings, long-term care, the Olmstead Act, and hospital finance and emergency department operations.

"I have gained perspective on Medicaid by working on the movement from the ground up. Along the way, I realized that more had to be done in order for Medicaid to run smoothly," said Greenstein. "I have chosen to join CNSI because through our customers and partners, I can help instill the kind of change that the Medicaid system needs most. Already, CNSI has, by far, the most superior MMIS product on the healthcare market. I want to help add to this momentum by providing states the ability to move from being payers of Medicaid services to being purchasers of health outcomes."

CNSI's MMIS uses Web-based technology to address the regulatory changes, business process changes, and technological changes facing state Medicaid agencies today. CNSI sees the future of the healthcare marketplace as one where consumers use the power of the Internet to receive focused information and tailored health management programs.
