Executive Summary:

Overall Status

Sprint status is good. The Product Team has prioritized the following themes and tasks for Sprint 140 comprising 22 points.  These themes included -   

  • Partner and Community support
  • X12 (Continued Testing, Error Handling and Large Payload Support)
  • SSA & VA Implementation Support
  • Healtheway Product Certification Support (Research and Support for Vendor Reported Issues)
  • Direct (Event Logging and Message Monitoring Testing)
  • Admin GUI (Password and Multiple Call Bugs)

The team completed 20 points this sprint. The team supported VA with their 4.2.2.2 upgrade as well as SSA with 4.3.2 implementation/testing related questions. The team implemented error handling as well as research related to large payloads for X12 messaging.  2 tickets were pulled out of the sprint early related to Direct testing(CONN-1228 and CONN-1231) and 2 tickets related to Admin GUI (CONN-1131 and CONN-1228) were pulled in. 1 ticket was re-pointed from 3 to 1 because the related support work (CONN-1330) was less than anticipated.

Sprint Themes and related tickets for Sprint 140:

 
Partner and Community support
  • Forum discussions
  • VA 4.2.2.2 implementation (CONN-1331)
    • 4.2.2.2  release information can be found here - 4.2.X Patches
    • VA determined the remaining three partners receiving 'Auth Failed' errors were due to same vendor spec interpretation issue related to attribute statement nesting
      • Related forum post - http://exchange-specifications.wikispaces.com/share/view/69155678. Both flavors are in use in the eHealth Exchange, but Healtheway will do some additional  research to check the numbers on production(how many use one flavor vs. the other). From a specification perspective, the underlying specification(OASIS/SAML) allows for both flavors and hence the recommendation is that a responding gateway should be accepting both flavors to be compliant. 
  • SSA 4.3.2 implementation (CONN-1330)
    • Researching X509 certificate issue related to "SAML Certification Verification : No providers found". 
      • Issue was due to a library supporting Direct(BouncyCastle) that was not required for Exchange based services, but was being utilized.
      • SSA removed Bouncy Castle and the issue was solved for them.
      • CONNECT team was not able to replicate this issue in the test environment.
      • Next steps are to follow-up with SSA and get some additional information on the environment to identify the root case( like version of WAS and IBM JDS, testing with multiple vendors using X509 certs etc)
      • CONN-1341 has been created for further analysis.
  • Partner Questions
  • Community and OHT support

Next Release (4.4)

  • Support for NwHIN CAQH Core X12 Document submission service 
    • Team reviewed the progress made last sprint with CMS team

    • Completed research and implementation for Large payloads for Deferred X12 Document submission using streaming and pass by reference(CONN-1314, CONN-1329, CONN-1337)
    • Researched and implemented error handling for cases described below - 
    • Updated wiki links and documentation for -
