Automated Health Systems formalized a new partnership with the Delaware Department of Health and Social Services, Division of Medicaid and Medical Assistance to provide health benefits manager services to the Delaware Medicaid and Delaware Healthy Children Programs. Starting on July 1, 2019, AHS enrollment and technical support teams began providing direct assistance to members before and after enrollment into the managed care organization of their choice, including benefit education and non-biased program assistance.
According to Kimberly Conner, Executive Senior Vice President of Human Resources at AHS, “We bring decades of experience, talent and care to the the people of Delaware. Our primary goal is to ensure that each and every person is treated with dignity and respect, and walks away from the table fully satisfied.”
Automated Health Systems, Inc., is the leader in health service management. Since 1979, from its headquarters in Pittsburgh, PA, AHS has partnered with state and local government agencies to connect with the people they serve. Visit www.automated-health.com for more information about AHS and our service to America.
Continuing a journey begun in 1979, Automated Health Systems proudly acknowledges the company’s 40th anniversary. Started as a small, entrepreneurial enterprise in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, AHS has grown to nearly 1,000 employees having worked with nearly half of the state governments in the United States. Today, AHS is the leader in the promotion and management of optimal health care services focusing on low-income families, communities and those most in-need.
Recently honored as a nominee for Leader of the Year by the Pittsburgh Human Resource Association in recognition her outstanding 30-year career achievement in HR, Kimberly A. Conner, Executive Senior Vice President of Human Resources at AHS said, “By any measure, four decades of serving the health care needs of millions of people is a supremely gratifying accomplishment in itself. When you combine that with having the opportunity to work closely with hundreds of highly skilled professionals daily, the personal satisfaction is immeasurable.”
For the past 40 years, AHS has employed thousands of skilled workers across the nation in important positions providing help to those seeking state and federal medical assistance. “As state governments realize that it is in their best interest to self-administer federal financial assistance provided to their citizens, the need will continue for Automated Health Systems to provide the technical expertise necessary to get the job done efficiently and cost-effectively,” Ms. Conner said.
Ms. Conner concluded by saying, “It is our employees who are on the front lines everyday helping those who need it most and I cannot be more proud of the job we do together. Here’s to the next 40 years!”

With cold and flu season upon us, each year Automated Health Systems recognizes National Clean Off Your Desk Day as a way to stress the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. According to Kimberly A. Conner, RDN, Executive Senior Vice President of Human Resources, “Our employees are our most valuable asset and we feel it very important to do everything we can to help them stay well. Clean Off Your Desk Day is an annual company initiative designed to remind everyone to take a look around and organize their work space.”
National Clean Off Your Desk Day began in 1982 with Anne Chase Moeller who helped in her father’s office and shared his very cluttered desk. Anne would often have to clean her father’s chaos in order to do her work. When she finished, she would put her things away and leave just to repeat the process next time. At the end of 1982, Anne declared that her father would clean off his desk at least once each year. They entered “National Clean Off Your Desk Day” into the record book for the second Monday in January and the rest is history.
