Umoja System Changes

HR: BN - Benefits

INTTRK-10564 (11 November 2016)
WO/CCBREQ# CCBREQ-4599
Description
The Umoja data extract that NHIIS receives has been amended as follows:

• Person Bank file: Added the IBAN field. In most cases NHIIS payments are done through IBAN. The account number alone is not sufficient and causes many payments to fail thus we have added the IBAN in addition to the account number. 
• Paying member file: Added the real contract expiry_date ( Valid until date in IT0016) of the person. The contract expiry date we received previously was the auto-generated 31.12.9999 which is not useful. The contract expiry date is important for UNSMIS- NHIIS to issue attestations and membership cards (used to check the validity of coverage by health providers like hospitals, doctors, etc).
