Customers Received Awards

Award-Winning Support for the District of Columbia Health Benefit Exchange Cloud Services Contract (DCHBX)

We are always glad to see our customers receive awards for the projects we are involved in. Here is one good example.

AWS Summit Awards

At its 2016 and 2018 Public Sector Summits, AWS awarded a City on a Cloud “Best Practices” citation to the District of Columbia Health Benefit Exchange Authority for innovative technology in its Cloud Services project. As a prime contractor on this project, A&T provided AWS IaaS, PaaS, and the security ATO that contributed to the project’s success so DC HBX officials invited A&T to join them as they received the AWS award.

In 2018, AWS cited DCHBX for its successful shared services model. In February 2017, DCHBX and the Massachusetts Health Connector for Business entered into the first, and still the only, state-based marketplace partnership in the nation. DCHBX used its small business health insurance marketplace IT solution to replace an older, more expensive solution for the Massachusetts Health Connector for Business. This partnership means that DCHBX and the Massachusetts Health Connector for Business share IT and operational costs for the on-line health insurance marketplace for small businesses. By sharing IT operational and development costs, both have saved millions of dollars.

Third award: In 2017, the DCHBX system was rated #1 U.S. Healthcare market enrollment system.
