15 RENEWED AAW: JULY 1, 2016
16 What you should know: General In accordance with State Statute: Commercial General Liability insurance Workers Compensation insurance Professional Liability Errors and Omissions insurance Providers of services in unlicensed settings may enroll service locations in contiguous states (NJ, DE, MD, WV, OH, and NY). Providers of Day Habilitation and Residential Habilitation (both Community Home and Family Living Home) must provide those services from service locations in PA. Most services may be delivered in states contiguous to PA, even if the service location is in PA. Services in licensed settings (Day Habilitation and Residential Habilitation) and Home Modifications must be provided in PA. 16
17 What you should know: General Updated terminology used throughout Revised several quality measures Increased the limitation on the number of participants served at any point in time from 518 to 568 and increased the number of unduplicated participants from 544 to 596 Added reserved capacity for ten individuals discharged from a state hospital and for three individuals transferring from the Adult Community Autism Program Allowed use of an interim service plan when an individual is enrolled in the waiver using reserved capacity and has a protective services plan that specifies a need for long-term support. Revised the intake process for individuals between 18 and 21 years of age Revised provider qualifications Revised the section on risk assessment and mitigation
18 What you should know: Service Specific Assistive Technology includes the independent evaluation as required for this service, if not available through the State Plan, other waiver services, or private insurance Behavioral Specialist and Community Inclusion is expanded and combined to form a new service, Specialized Skill Development (SSD). The scope of the Behavioral Specialist service remains largely unchanged. The qualifications are expanded and clarified. A third component, Systematic Skill Building is included in the SSD service., which uses ABA methods to help the participant acquire skills that promote the participant s independence and integration into the community, which are not behavioral in focus. Like BSS, SSB includes plan development, direct ongoing support and indirect ongoing support. Community Inclusion is renamed Community Support. The purpose, scope, and qualifications of service remain largely unchanged. However, staffing levels are expanded: 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 staff to participant ratios
19 What you should know: Service Specific Environmental Modifications separated out into two services: Home Modifications and Vehicle Modifications Family Training and Family Counseling combined, and renamed Family Support. The limitation on utilization of Family Support is 40 hours per plan year. Occupational Therapy eliminated Residential Habilitation Respite services will be allowable for participants receiving Residential Habilitation in Family Living (Chapter 6500) settings. Respite The limitation is clarified to 30 times the day unit rate for respite in a licensed facility, but may continue to be used in any combination of in- or out-of-home respite that does not exceed that amount.
20 What you should know: Service Specific Job Assessment and Job Finding renamed Career Planning which includes two components, Vocational Assessment and Job Finding. will only support competitive integrated employment at or above minimum wage. Vocational Assessment will develop a Vocational Profile to identify a career direction and plan to achieve employment; the scope includes evaluating social capital, learning opportunities and benefits counseling. The scope of Job Finding is expanded to include networking with prospective employers, supporting self-employment and job carving. Both components of Career Planning are billable in 15-minute units subject to limitations. Staff qualifications are broadened.
21 What you should know: Service Specific Supported Employment expanded to include two components: Intensive Job Coaching and Extended Employment Supports. Supported Employment supports competitive integrated employment at o, and may provide support directly to the participant and indirectly to others involved in the participant s employment such as supervisors or co-workers Intensive Job Coaching supports participants who require on-the-job support for more than 20% of their work week at the outset of the service, with the expectation that the need for support will diminish during the Intensive Job Coaching period. Extended Employment Supports helps participants for an indefinite period as needed by the participant for 20% or less of their work week. Temporary Crisis Services renamed Temporary Supplemental Services and allows for additional staff support to assist the participant in avoiding a crisis or developing coping skills after a crisis.
22 SPECIALIZED SKILL DEVELOPMENT AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
23 SPECIALIZED SKILL DEVELOPMENT (SSD) SERVICES
24
25 Behavioral Specialist and Community Support Services remain largely unchanged. Let s walk through what Systematic Skill Building looks like and what it means for SCs
26 How is BSS different from SSB? BSS -FBA drives the BSP/CIP -Primarily targets maladaptive behaviors -BSP Template targets antecedent strategies, replacement behaviors, and consequence strategies -Assessments (formal or informal) drive outcomes -Plans are developed to clearly identify strategies that will be used to teach skills -Based on principles of ABA -Instructional Decisions based upon data -CS or other supports implements both plans -Both have direct and indirect services -Other services are required to follow both plans -They both do not submit MPNs to SCs (only QSRs) SSB -Informal Assessments drive SBP -Primarily targets adaptive behaviors -SBP identifies prompting strategies, materials/environm ental adaptations, generalization, GAS, etc..)
27 Where to start with SSD/SSB? What is my role as an SC? SSD/SSB was designed to emphasize the use of evidencebased methods to help the participant acquire skills that promote the participant s independence and integration into the community, which are not behavioral in focus. SC s role is to educate the family and participants to explore this component in order to benefit from systematic instruction delivered by highly-trained professionals, which include the development of skill-specific strategies to reach the identified goals and objectives, and ongoing data analysis to make instructional decisions. 27
28 What does the SBP look like?
29
30
31 What do I need to do once the SBP is complete? Skill Building Specialist (SBS): send goals and objectives to the SC after all SBPs are completed. Hard copies of SBPs remain in participant files SC: enter goals and objectives into HCSIS BAS Clinical: review goals and objectives for formatting and quality BAS/SC: Once approved, SSB- Plan Development is authorized and Direct/Consult may be added via a CR SC: At the end of every quarter, enter progress toward each goal into HCSIS (see GAS section of this training for more specific details)
32 Where do I go for more information on this service? 7 Module training was developed in Spring, 2016 and posted to our online training platform Module 1- Applied Behavioral Analysis Module 2- Best Instructional Practices Module 3- Introduction to Systematic Skill Building Module 4- SBP: Demographics, Goals, and Objectives Module 5- SBP: Instructional Strategies Module 6- Goal Attainment Scaling Module 7: Progress Reporting and Making Instructional Decisions Although anyone can access the training to learn more about SSB, BAS will NOT be scoring or providing feedback on SBPs submitted for review for SCs or any other provider who is not intending to enroll as SSD.
33 SSB Service Guidance Documents Goals and Objectives Cheat Sheet Goal Categories SBP Tip Sheet SBP Quick Reference: What Goes Where Instructional Decisions QSR Due Dates for BSS/SSB Providers SBP Guidance SBP Examples
34 EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
35 Where to start? Your role in employment is to emphasize the importance of employment with participants and their families; to discuss establishing employment goals in the ISP; and to assist with referrals to the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR) 35
36 Do you need to make an OVR referral? If the participant does not meet an exception to receiving OVR services as outlined in the joint ODP/OVR bulletin issued and effective April 1, 2016, the participant is expected to first seek employment services through OVR. 36
37 What service(s) will assist with actualizing the desired vocational outcome? Career Planning Vocational Assessment Job Finding Supported Employment Intensive Job Coaching Extended Employment Supports Transitional Work Services 37
38 Resources Service Guidance Document: When Should I Make a Referral to the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation Completing a Vocational Profile (Communication BAW16-34) Clarifications regarding AAW Employment Services (Communication BAW16-39)
39 Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) 39
40 What is GAS? Individualized approach for establishing and measuring the attainment of goals/objectives for people with varying levels of disability and support needs A set of unique goals/objectives and range of criteria are established A standardized approach to measuring and reporting outcomes
41 History of GAS Developed in 1968 to evaluate mental health programs Since then, GAS has been used in education, nursing, rehabilitation, medicine, corrections and social work fields King, McDougall, Tucker, et., al (1999) GAS in therapy setting for functional skills for children with disabilities in a school setting.
42 Merits & Benefits of GAS Criterion NOT Norm referenced Uses quantitative measures Encourages data-based instructional decisions Measures individual goals Allows for group analysis
43 GAS Pilot with AAW Providers Fall BAS gathered data to review goals, objectives, and Quarterly Summary Reports Across 4 quarters from a sample of 86 objectives, over 65% of QSRs were either identified as inconclusive (unable to determine progress) or not reflective of actual objectives within participant plans December January Identified 10 participants and trained SCs and providers on GAS model Ongoing Technical Assistance from Clinical was provided Round Table Discussions held to gather feedback on the model for statewide implementation Data was collected and monitored for one year to track progress
44 Effective July 1, 2016, GAS Implementation began Statewide with Systematic Skill Building ONLY All other providers will implement within the next 6 months- stay tuned for more information
45 GAS Chart
46 GAS Guidance for Providers
47 What does GAS mean for my role as an SC? SC is responsible for: Entering goal phrases, goal statements, and objectives received from the SSD/SSB provider into HCSIS Collecting QSR data from providers (providers must submit to SCs by the 10 th following the end of the quarter See: Service Guidance Document QSR chart Entering QSR data into HCSIS following the NEW FORMAT!
48 Remember To end date all previous goals and objectives before adding GAS goals and objectives Goals and objectives can continue from previous plan year, but should be end dated and written in GAS format Keep goals and objectives individualized and prioritized To categorize each goal (ADL, Social/Communication, Behavior, or Employment) when entering into HCSIS E.g. Money Management (ADL) or Coping Skills (Behavior)
49 Reporting Progress in HCSIS
50 . Note: The data collected for the last month of the quarter will be reflected on the GAS chart as well as Quarterly Summary Report. The GAS chart only needs to be submitted to SC at the end of the quarter for BSS and SSB.
