Heightened Scrutiny Onsite Tools for Non-Residential Service Locations Finalized

ODP Announcement 21-081 informs providers that the Heightened Scrutiny Onsite Tools for Non-Residential Service Locations has been finalized and posted for stakeholders to view. The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) is also using this communication to address some of the comments and concerns that were received through public comment.

While the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in significant delays in performing the onsite visits, ODP will now be continuing with the Heightened Scrutiny process for Community Participation Support (CPS) and Day Habilitation service locations to meet the CMS requirement that all waiver providers must be in full compliance with the Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Settings Rule no later than March 17, 2023.
