BDDS Updates of Interest

1/4/2021

 
The Bureau of Developmental Disabilities Services is committed to working collaboratively with case managers and providers during this extraordinary time. ​
We appreciate the hands-on and coordinated efforts and responses our case managers and providers have demonstrated. As part of this commitment, BDDS has the following updates of interest:
  • BDDS is hosting a provider and case manager webinar on Thursday, Jan. 7, 2021, from 3 to 4 p.m. EST. The webinar will include information and updates on COVID-19 and Electronic Visit Verification.
    • The webinar will be held via Microsoft Live. To participate please log in using this link.
    • Great Opportunity - The webinar will include two special guests!
      • Michael Cook, OMPP director of provider services, will provide information and updates of the implementation of EVV that begins January 1, 2021.
      • Dr. Daniel Rusyniak, FSSA’s chief medical officer, will provide information and updates as well have an opportunity for questions on COVID-19.
    • To assist us in preparing for this session, please take a moment to share what COVID-19 questions you would like for Dr. Rusyniak to address. Your questions can be submitted to Jessica Harlan-York at jessica.harlan-york@fssa.in.gov by close of business on Monday, Jan. 4, 2021.
    • During the webinar, we will provide a mechanism for participants to confirm their participation for purposes of receiving a Certificate of Attendance.
  • The Dec. 2, 2020, bi-weekly provider and case manager webinar recording is now available.
  • The recording and materials from last week’s informational webinar on BinaxNOWtm testing for BDDS congregate residential settings is now available. Congregate settings include Medicaid home-and community-based waiver settings serving two or more individuals and community residential facilities for persons with developmental disabilities (ICF/IDDs and SGLs).  

    If your organization already has a CLIA number, you will need to update your CLIA waiver by submitting form 116 to include BinaxNOWtm on the list of tests that you will perform under your CLIA certification. If you are adding locations, you will need to update this information as well. Once you submit this update, please complete the BDDS Congregate Residential BinaxNOWtm Request form.

    When your organization receives your CLIA number, please complete the BDDS Congregate Residential BinaxNOWtm Request form. We will then work with the Indiana Department of Health to send you a shipment of BinaxNOWtm cards, at no cost to your organization.

    If your organization is interested in accessing testing materials, the first step is obtaining your CLIA Certificate of Waiver. Information on the CLIA application process is available through the How to Apply for a CLIA Waiver Workbook linked with the presentation.
