C7: Has the Health Check Schedule been implemented in CPRS? Is the State on track to complete this step by 7/04? 7 th Quarter Report: The Health Check is complete. 8 th Quarter Report: Achieved. As reported in the 7 th quarter the Health Check/Status is completed. The First Placement Best Placement data component has been incorporated into CPRS and the pilot that allows providers the ability to enter First Placement Best Placement assessment information continues. The eleven counties mentioned in the benchmark of this action step should not be confused with the current FP/BP pilot/enhancements to CPRS. The eleven counties mentioned in the benchmark, refer to the 1 st paragraph of this Action Step. The 2 nd paragraph of this action step was originally a part of the state’s PIP reporting on accomplishments (see the January 2003 and the April 2003 quarterly reports) but was inadvertently added as part of the action step in the 3 rd quarter report (July 2003). The original CPRS pilot (mentioned in the 2 nd paragraph of this action step) was completed and CPRS was instituted statewide in July 2002 (see PIP Documentation Appendix July 2003, Tab 12). Statewide CPRS training was concluded in July 2003 (see PIP Documentation July 2003, Tab 6). First Placement Best Placement technical assistance to staff and providers is an on-going assigned work activity. All 159 counties have been trained and are continually provided technical assistance as needed and upon request. First Placement Best Placement and CPRS have been integrated in all training for new workers and veteran staff. Additionally, the state has implemented the CAPTA requirements for the referral of children under the age of 3, who are involved in a substantiated case of child maltreatment to early intervention services, which in Georgia is the Babies Can't Wait system. Also, the procedure and practice requires the referral of all children in foster care ages birth to five to the Division of Public Health's Children 1 st Program. 8 th Quarter DOCUMENTATION: (1) CPRS Health Care Status Screen.
