The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) has published announcement ODPANN 25-096 to notify stakeholders that ODP has published the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) received about Supports Coordination Organization Performance-Based Contracting (SCO-PBC). The FAQ resource has been developed from questions submitted during webinar summits, virtual office hours, and to the PBC Resource Account. Questions have been categorized by topic and performance measures.

The FAQ can be accessed on MyODP at the SCO Frequently Asked Questions web page.

SCOs should continue to send questions via email so ODP can ensure they are answered consistently.

The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) has shared communication ODPANN 25-095 and its accompanying attachments. This communication advises stakeholders of a change to the Cycle 3, Year 1 (C3Y1) Quality Assessment & Improvement (QA&I) Tools. The following questions from the QA&I C3Y1 Tools have been removed due to a high volume of stakeholder inquiries related to evaluation expectations:

  • AE Question #1 – The AE engages in activities, or has a written policy, to improve racial equity performance.
  • SCO Question #4 – The SCO engages in activities, or has a written policy, to improve racial equity performance.
  • Provider Question #4 – The Provider engages in activities, or has a written policy, to improve racial equity performance.

Please review the announcement and attachments for additional information on the changes.

The Office of Developmental Program (ODP) has begun posting the Supports Coordination Organization (SCO) Performance-Based Contracting (PBC) Measures on Docushare. Please note that all reports are compiled by MPI, not by Service Location.

The SCO PBC Measures report is specific to entities providing ID Waivers and TSM. If your SCO does not have a report available, feel free to reach out for clarification.

Some SCOs may currently experience access issues due to recent employee role changes that were not accompanied by updated DocuShare access requests to ODP. If this applies to your organization, please contact us so we can assist.

If you have any questions about the report, please reach out to the ODP Data Analysis team via email.

Thank you for your continued collaboration.
