Java/JEE Rest/Middle Ware Solution Developer

Project Description:

• WellPoint or Anthem Blue Cross and Blue shield of Rhode Island ABCBS is an independent licensee of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association and is one of the leading healthcare insurance providers in Connecticut. For providing the user interface they have different applications eg: web. One of such application is Mobile App through which member can get to know the benefits for their plan, claims information, get a quote for the health plans available in a particular area, have CSRs call the members back based on their provided convenient time, request id card and so on.
• The architecture is based on calling the Kony platform to make all such calls for the downstream SOAP based web services. Kony platform has multiple issues and WellPoint wants to migrate to a newer solution that is more open to JEE implementation, is easy and with a more flexible, scalable and maintainable solution and to do this a new middle ware layer is introduced in the architecture to bypass the kony middleware. The new layer is termed aggregation where in the SOAP based web service is exposed as Restful web services.
• In this project my role has been spanning multiple areas and applications. Below is the role application wise.

Role: Rest API/ Middle Tier Solution Developer

The ABCBS mobile app calls the Restful web services that are exposed through the Rest or Middle tier api. This particular layer is responsible for actually calling the downstream SOAP based web services and exposing an API as Restful to the caller applications.

Responsibilities:

• Work closely with the business owner to gather and understand the business and functional requirements.
• To estimate the work effort for updating the existing/ adding new functionality for the mobile app.
• Designed and implemented the RESTApi for the UI screen through the mobile user can look-up the available health plans and monthly premium against each of them by taking the zip code as the parameter.
• Fine tuning of the mobile app in the performance environment and to make it more scalable, more efficient in terms of time and/or space/volume.
• Designed and implemented the RESTApi for the UI screen through the mobile user can leave their phone number and the convenient time so as to have the Customer Service Representative would call them back at the provided number and as per their mentioned convenient time.
• Coordinating with the vendors from time to time as and when the need for change arises.
• Coordinating with the test team for the regression test with each release, deployment in each of the lower environment and supporting for the defect fix, if any, that comes along the line.

Sr. Java/J2EE Developer

Project Description:

• Confidential is an independent licensee of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association and is one of the leading healthcare insurance providers here in RI. All the claims processing and adjudication functionality is implemented in the in-house customized tool implemented in Mainframe system called Long Range System Processing LRSP . BCBSRI is now migrating to the Trizetto's claims processing systems called Facets. Facets is a domain model implemented in Sybase. Blue Cross has different client facing application that gets the data from the Facets through in-house built Enterprise Service Bus or ESB. The ESB's are developed/implemented through the Oracle earlier Sun proprietary tool called Java Composite Application Platform Suite -JCAPS.
• The end user Member/Provider/Employer/Broker who opted for health coverage from BCBSRI or have business engagement with BC can query the information eligibility. benefits coverage, claims Information, billing information and the data pertains to the healthcare systems .
• The client facing applications are called Channels that include applications i.e. - website BCBSRI.com , Interactive Voice Response System IVR , EDI data application for 27X real-time transactions. All these applications use ESB services as the middle-ware to fetch the data from the Facets System.
