From Black Box to Blueprint: Demonstrating Medicaid Modernization with KPMG Blaze and Generative AI
Date: Tuesday, August 18, 2026
Time: 10:40 AM – 11:30 AM PT
Location: Portland Ballroom 254
Modernizing Medicaid legacy systems is complex, costly, and risky, with decades of business rules buried in aging code and limited documentation. As states pursue modular, cloud-based architectures, GenAI is creating new opportunities to accelerate modernization while reducing uncertainty.
Join KPMG and state leaders for a demonstration of KPMG Blaze, KPMG’s GenAI-powered modernization accelerator, and hear firsthand how states are evaluating AI to transform legacy systems. Blaze rapidly analyzes source code, extracts and documents business logic, generates modern application code, maps data lineage, and creates a transparent knowledge base that supports modernization planning and execution.
The session will feature the State of New Mexico’s experience using Blaze as part of its Medicaid modernization strategy, along with additional lessons learned from KPMG’s work applying GenAI to modernize complex Medicaid business functions and improve transparency within vendor-managed systems.
Join us to gain practical insights into where AI delivers the greatest value, implementation considerations, governance lessons, and strategies for reducing modernization risk while accelerating cloud and modular transformation.
