2023 Certified Investigator Peer Review Manual Now Available

ODP Announcement 23-035 announces that an updated Certified Investigator Peer Review Manual (CIPR) is now available. Agency Board of Directors and Human Rights Committee members, Agency Administrative, Management and Risk Management staff, Administrative Entities (AEs), Supports Coordination Organizations (SCOs), Supports Coordinators (SCs), Direct Service Providers (DSPs), and Contracted Entities that are responsible for participating in the Peer Review process for investigations that are conducted as a requirement under Incident Management Bulletin 00-21-02 and under Chapter 6100.404 Final Incident Report should all be familiar with the information contained in the manual.

All prospective and current Certified Investigators (CI), Administrative Review Committee members, and other administrative staff are required to be familiar with the 2023 CIPR Manual to ensure their understanding and use of the standards and protocols contained in it. In order to align with Incident Management (IM) Bulletin 00-21-02 (effective on July 1, 2021) and the Enterprise Incident Management (EIM) system, several new or expanded topics have been added to the manual. This document replaces the manual that was published in 2021.
