In response to recent updates, the Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) has released an updated version of ODPANN 24-015. This revision includes important guidance on implementing changes to assistive technology as outlined in the November Waiver Amendments. The original release did not include this information, but it has now been added for clarity and reference.
To aid in the implementation of these changes, the updated communication includes three attachments: Attachment A provides guidance on Remote Supports Services in HCSIS, Attachment B offers guidance on AAW Report Support Services in HCSIS, and Attachment C presents a Remote Supports or Assistive Technology Decision Tree. These attachments are designed to help providers navigate the implementation process and ensure that they are following proper procedures.
It is crucial for providers to use this updated version of the communication moving forward to ensure that all necessary guidance is included for implementing changes to assistive technology. By referencing the updated ODPANN 24-015, providers can access the information they need to effectively implement changes to remote supports and assistive technology in accordance with the November Waiver Amendments.
