Attachment A: Minnesota Medicaid Enterprise Systems (MES) Modernization Strategy Summary

A strategy outlining a new, outcome-driven, slice-based approach to modernizing Medicaid Enterprise Systems, prioritizing experimentation, measurable outcomes, and cultural transformation over traditional large-scale system replacements.

Published Year: 2025

The MES Modernization Strategy Summary outlines Minnesota’s vision for transforming its Medicaid Enterprise Systems by diagnosing long-standing modernization obstacles, defining strategic principles to address them, and introducing a slice-based delivery model focused on measurable outcomes.

It describes how small, end-to-end “slices” will be used to test approaches, reduce risk, and build modernization capacity over time. The document also presents a high-level action plan, future-state goals, and a new procurement approach designed to promote experimentation, learning, and continuous improvement.
