I thought TEFRA had a bigger impact on Medicaid, but maybe I'm wrong.

Wait, are we sure it was OBRA-81? Sounds too good to be true.

It's OBRA-81 that changed the game for Medicaid HMOs.

I'm confident this is a true statement. The question is clearly stating that if you need to bring in outside resources for an internal project, then that project is considered "custom software." Straightforward enough.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this. The question seems to be asking whether the importance of local or centralized staff depends on company policy, but I'm not sure if that's the right way to interpret it. I'll have to think this through a bit more.

This looks like a security-focused question. I'll need to think about the different ways to restrict access to the databases.

This looks like a straightforward question on infrastructure automation tools. I'll start by thinking about the key differences between Puppet, Terraform, and Ansible.

This seems like a tricky question. I'll need to think through the VXLAN architecture and the different components involved.
