  1. state has done extensive planning to prepare for this unwinding period and the unprecedented volume of work that must be completed. In addition to requirements to complete annual redeterminations during the 14-month unwinding period, the state must adhere to application timeliness requirements. Despite extensive planning and efforts by SCDHHS to complete Medicaid redeterminations during the state’s COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (PHE) unwinding period , SCDHHS is not seeing the level of responsiveness from the Medicaid members it expected in returning their annual review forms to ensure the members retain coverage and promote continuity of care. This condition is a threat to public health and the welfare of the state’s citizens reliant on Medicaid funded services for their wellbeing. This early level of coverage loss has identified a need to expand upon current strategies and procure paid media for an ad campaign to reach the necessary audience to inform them of the importance of submitting their documentation timely.

This is an addition of funds from $2,000,000 to $4,416,500 which was previously advertised on April 21, 2023.

Youth Villages is the purveyor of the Intercept Model that provides intensive stabilization work with families who have a youth at-risk of an out-of-home placement due to serious family conflict, child welfare involvement, mental health issues or serious behaviors (including substance abuse, defiance, runaway, truancy, etc.). The program also provides reunification support for youth who recently have been placed outside the home. The Intercept program can prevent a child from entering a foster care or residential placement that are often costly and unnecessary. The work is done through intensive in-home parenting skills and mental health services for children (birth to their 18th birthday) and their families to address serious emotional and behavioral problems, including trauma and abuse/neglect.  Agency performed an internet search and reviewed documentation from that provider that states The Intercept model is the property of Youth Villages, and Youth Villages is the exclusive purveyor of the Intercept model.

The Agency hereby provides notice that it intends to enter into a sole source contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1560 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

The South Carolina Department of Education (SCDE) intends to secure a contract with Level Data, to provide data validation, workflow, and integration services for FY24.

The SCDE receives data elements from each South Carolina School District through a statewide Student Information System (SIS). To improve the overall quality of that data, SCDE must validate it. Level Data implements data validation and processing rules that ensure that important and required data are entered correctly at the school district level through the SIS. Level Data accomplishes this through their Data Correction and Validation screening capabilities. Level Data is the only company that is able to provide this type of data integration service in a manner which will not violate existing support agreements with the current statewide SIS provider, PowerSchool. Data is validated in many applications separate from the SIS including, but not limited to Transportation, Assessment, Special Education, Textbook and Food/Nutrition Management. Without a data integration service these data must be typed into both the application system and the PowerSchool system by district personnel. This duplicate entry process is time consuming and prone to data entry errors.

Level Data allows data to be easily collected and processed for quality and accuracy for State and Federal reporting purposes. Integration and storage of data is unique to Level Data for SCDE, which must comply with the SCDE Security and Data Storage policies related to the storage and use of personally identifiable information (PII), protection on the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), and protections under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

Integrating these systems through one validation process decreases the volume of erroneous data that SCDE receives, decreases the data reporting response time for school level performance reports, and saves our school districts resources, including time and money.

The Agency hereby provides notice that it intends to enter into a sole source contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1560 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

SCDHHS, in consultation with CMS, has chosen the MarkLogic products as the data storage technology at the core of the Medicaid Enterprise System (MES). The MarkLogic contract is a sole source approved by CMS letter SC-2019-05-21 dated July 11, 2019. Competitive solicitations for MarkLogic consulting services were attempted, but the responses were not considered as responsive and/or capable of providing the expertise necessary to satisfy program requirements. SCDHHS considers the services delivered by MarkLogic to be invaluable and crucial to success of the Medicaid Enterprise System (MES), and by extension, the implementation of all enterprise applications. SCDHHS requires professional consulting services directly from the creator of the technology to support ongoing production operations as well as planned development efforts. MarkLogic consultants have unique proprietary expertise that is required by SCDHHS to assist with complex architectural designs, programming techniques, testing strategies, infrastructure configuration, and performance optimization. Only the creator of the technology has the proprietary knowledge and expertise to provide such sophisticated consultations. In addition, SCDHHS requires expedited issue resolution and product customizations that only MarkLogic engineers can provide. No other vendor has access to MarkLogic proprietary source code and internal design specifications, so no other vendor can provide the level of support required by the MES program to meet enterprise delivery commitments and other performance obligations. SCDHS is requesting an extension of the contract end date from June 30, 2023 to June 30, 2024.
