Assessments are conducted to determine the following:
-
Compliance with state and federal rules, regulations and policies;
-
Compliance with the terms of the contract and any attachments;
-
If service provision meets or exceeds service standards and/or contract requirements, as applicable; and
-
Factors that may have contributed to the achievement or lack of achievement in meeting service standards and/or contract requirements.
On-site assessments are conducted by Department staff a minimum of two times during the contract period. Department staff may conduct more in-depth reviews based on specific circumstances and the needs of contract entities.
An exit conference will be held at the conclusion of each on-site assessment/review to outline findings. Contract entities must respond, in writing, to any findings identified during the assessment process in the time frame set forth by Department staff. Follow-up will be conducted to assure appropriate action has been taken to address each finding.
Non-compliance may result in non-payment or recapture of funds.
