Help Shape the Performance-Based Contracting Waiver Transition by Completing Survey

The Pennsylvania Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) has informed us that they are preparing to release the proposed Performance-Based Contracting Waiver for public comment within the next two months, with adoption of the system in January 2025 for all residential service providers. Prior to January, all providers will be evaluated, determining which providers are considered primary, select, or meet the clinically enhanced standards.

RCPA is assessing the extent to which IDD providers are prepared to meet these new expectations. This survey will help inform our advocacy efforts with ODP to ease the transition to this new service model, and assure the welfare of the individuals being served in these programs.

We need your help with completing this survey that will help assess our readiness. A PDF copy of the survey can be accessed here, so that you can preview the questions and gather any information you believe will be helpful in completing the survey. When you are ready to complete the survey, you can access the survey online.

We have extended the deadline in order to allow for additional provider participation. Please complete the survey by COB on Thursday February 29, 2024.

If you have any questions regarding this survey, please contact either Dr. Scott Spreat (via email or 215-750-4015) or Carol Ferenz (via email or 717-364-3282).

Thank you for your participation.
