Infosys

The U.S. District of Columbia has extended its contract with Infosys. Earlier, the District signed a $49.5 million agreement with the company in January 2013 to develop its Health Insurance Marketplace, the DC Health Link. The DC Health Link offers health insurance options to over half a million residents and small businesses. 

Under the new agreement, Infosys will modernize the legacy eligibility system and additional federal and local health and social programs for the U.S. District of Columbia.
