Information Specialist.

Project overview

Assignment Description Information Specialist Data Modeling (PGB2.0) Do you want to contribute to the further development and professionalization of the PGB2.0 organization? Are you looking for the connection between different stakeholders within a dynamic program? Then this is your chance. As an Information Specialist, you are responsible for translating business processes and legal frameworks within the PGB chain into a coherent information provision.

You ensure that the design of data, information exchange, and process support optimally aligns with the execution of the primary PGB service provision to budget holders.

Scope of the assignment

Within this assignment, you are responsible for:

Deliverables

Logical data model

Documentation

Guidelines for developers

Application examples

Advisory products

What is expected of you?

As an experienced information specialist, you are able to:

• Developing and maintaining a logical data model for the PGB chain.
• Modeling all relevant entities and relationships within the PGB value chain and the underlying processes.
• Mapping data flows between all parties involved within the chain.
• Aligning the data model with the updated enterprise architecture of the PGB chain.
• Applying normalization principles to:
• Minimize redundancy.
• Maximize data consistency.
• Analyzing and optimizing data and information issues within the primary PGB processes.
• Achieving chain-wide alignment between process design, data management, and execution.
• Maintenance of the current normalized logical data model in a standard notation, such as:
• UML
• ERD (Entity Relationship Diagram)
• Delivery of a new normalized logical data model that:
• Better aligns with the responsibilities within the business architecture.
• Is prepared for future improvements and expansions such as:
• Cleanup and archiving
• Health Insurance Act (Zvw)
• Combination schemes
• Other future developments
• Detailed documentation of:
• Entities
• Attributes

• The new logical data model
• The conceptual model (in development)
• The current physical data model
• Guidelines for applying the model when designing:
• Functionality
• Message exchange
• Services
• APIs
• Concrete examples of using the model within common use cases in the PGB chain.
• Advice for process improvement.
• Advice for the design of information provision within the execution of the PGB scheme.
• Quickly understand the complexity of the PGB chain.
• Develop a detailed and well-normalized logical data model.
• Effectively explain this model to different target groups, including:
• Developers who use the model for functionality, messages, services, and APIs.
• Testers who use the model to create test scenarios and test cases.
• Functional and administrative stakeholders.

Background assignment

Client: iRealisatie

iRealisatie is part of the Information Policy directorate of the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS). On behalf of policy departments of VWS, iRealisatie develops custom software and digital solutions that contribute to the further digitization of healthcare.

Activities of iRealisatie

iRealisatie possesses all the necessary expertise to design, develop, and manage software. Privacy and security are central to this.

Background: PGB2.0

A personal budget (pgb) is a budget with which care recipients can purchase care, support, guidance, or facilities themselves to live independently. The budget holder can choose their own care providers and caregivers.

Legal regulations

A pgb can be provided from various legal frameworks:

The PGB2.0 chain system

To support the execution of the PGB chain, the PGB2.0 chain system has been developed. PGB2.0 supports:

The system particularly supports the financial and administrative processing of care provision.

Structure of PGB2.0

PGB2.0 consists of two interconnected domains:

Care domain

The care domain includes portals for:

Financial domain

The financial domain consists of the financial and administrative systems of the SVB. Both domains are connected via various interfaces and data exchanges.

Organizational context

A multi-year administrative process is currently underway that will lead to the structural transfer and embedding of PGB2.0 within the SVB. As a result, the organization is in a phase where standardization, data quality, architecture, and future-proof information provision are of great importance.
