Placement/Best Placement Providers are unable to enter information into the system until a DFCS CM provides access for the agency<br />

to log onto the system <strong>an</strong>d enter information for a specific case. This has created logistical delays in the timeliness <strong>of</strong> information<br />

being entered as CM’s do not provide access until they begin working on the initial case pl<strong>an</strong> which may be within days <strong>of</strong> the 30 day<br />

submission <strong>of</strong> the pl<strong>an</strong> to the court.<br />

There are no reports available from the pilot. As the pilot counties continue to utilize the system, the state will work with the CIP in<br />

developing reports <strong>an</strong>d data to assist in support <strong>of</strong> a statewide application <strong>of</strong> CPRS enh<strong>an</strong>cements.<br />

8th Quarter Report: This action step does not address the health care needs <strong>of</strong> children in foster care. A cut<br />

<strong>an</strong>d paste error probably occurred because it is exactly the same as Item 17, Needs <strong>an</strong>d Services, Action Step I-<br />

7. The step as it reads is inappropriate for this item, which should address physical health needs <strong>of</strong> children.<br />

Therefore, The action step should read: Complete a quarterly county-by county report as it relates to the initial<br />

assessment <strong>of</strong> the First Placement Best Placement Comprehensive Assessment <strong>an</strong>d health care services<br />

available <strong>an</strong>d the identified health needs <strong>of</strong> children.<br />
