New York Individual Service Plan The Therap system supports the entire process of service coordination required by Medicaid. With its online equivalent of the Individualized Service Plan (ISP), Therap provides easy storage and retrieval of all required documents linked with the ISP, and ensures automated information sharing and communication among the related people like service coordinators, families and provider agencies in a HIPAA secure and timely manner. Therap is also working on linking its Billing module to the ISP Program and Data modules to directly generate billing data for the services provided.

Written Evaluations and Eligibility/Enrollment Documentation can be entered into the system using the T-Log module and also as external attachments to the ISP Plan. All other documents required for a Service Coordination Record to be completed can be attached with an ISP Plan as this module can contain an unlimited number of attachments. Once the Individual Service

Habilitation Plan Habilitation Plan is an essential document for providers of Habilitation Services. Therap's Habilitation Plan module contains all the recommended key elements including a person's name, Medicaid Identification Number, name of the Service Provider, Type of Service, last Review/Update detail, Valued Outcomes addressed by the service, description of Support and Services, Safeguards details and author of the Plan. Habilitation Plan in Therap is integrated with the ISP Program and ISP Plan through Valued Outcomes. This integration eliminates double documentation and provides a simple way of creating and updating Habilitation Plans.

Individualized Plan of Protective Oversight and Safeguards (IPOP) The Individualized Plan of Protective Oversight & Safeguards (IPOP) module is designed to enhance the level of care and safety. This can be achieved by effectively documenting procedures and guidelines for providing support to consumers, and recording a consumer’s detailed protection and safety requirements for different programs. The IPOP module provides extensive information on a consumer’s skills, required level of assistance, methods for caring, nutrition, and medication needs, etc. Divided into six categories, this module

takes a questionnairebased approach to document and update information under the different categories. Information from any of the categories can be efficiently shared in a HIPAA compliant way. IPOP and Safeguards for an individual can be linked to ISP Plans. They can also be printed out and saved in PDF format.

ISP Programs Therap’s ISP Program module allows for the development of a detailed individual plan with scoring methods to track progress. It can be used to track individual

skills and goals. It can also act as a shift ‘checklist’ to ensure that Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) have attended to a particular individual’s needs, as well as be

a place for running a log of, for example, an individual’s recreational activities, or their case management notes.

ISP Reports The ISP Report module allows users to generate reports on the data that has been entered for an individual’s program. These auto-generated reports will be useful in review processes. For New York users, reports can be of three types: Programmatic, Clinician and Res Hab Documentation Record. With the Pro-

grammatic Report option one can view task scores for specific periods and their calculated deviation from the baseline. This enables provider agencies as well as guardians to track progress of an individual with statistical accuracy based on the scores entered into the system. A Clinician Report on the other hand gives

an overview of begin and end times of a session, its total duration, and comments. This kind of report can show overall progress of a person towards the goal without going into statistical details. Both Programmatic and Clinician Reports can be exported to Excel for further analysis.

Habilitation Checklists In Therap applications, the ISP Program module is actually used to generate required documentation for Residential Habilitation services. The report function in ISP Program generates Individual Summary and Daily Checklists for different Habilitation Services like Supervised/Supportive IRA Residential Habilitation, Group Day Habilitation, etc. Therap provides an integrated approach

for such documentation as is it linked with the ISP Data collection module. Staff actions/services are documented as individual tasks in one or more ISP Programs as the individual participates in those programs. Data collection is done on a daily basis and staff initials are recorded along with individual responses to each task. In ISP Data, Time In/Time Out records along with additional comments/

observations are recorded, thus users can access detailed documentation for every staff action recorded in the Habilitation Checklist. Therap is also working on integrating Habilitation documentation with the Billing module to make it easier for users to generate billing data straight from the Habilitation documentation.
