The purpose of this procedure is to update when and how the Department on Disability Services (DDS), Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA), will receive acuity packets from DDA Intermediate Care Facility (ICF) providers for people living in ICFs and process them for submission to the Department of Health Care Finance (DHCF). It provides that DDS will generate issues when providers submit incorrect or incomplete documents, requiring providers to timely resolve the issues. It also establishes that DDS will be tracking and trending acuity packet deficiencies for each provider.
