bswift, a national leader in employee benefits technology, has been selected by the State of Utah to provide online health plan enrollment and administration technology for the “Utah Health Exchange,” an Internet portal that is the cornerstone of Utah’s approach to health system reform.

I guess we’ll see how things go in Utah and then see which states climb aboard.

I wonder if other states will follow Utah’s lead and implement bswift or another solution for HR outsourcing.
