AMH-TCM lead agencies will
begin collecting data on employment and housing-related outcomes on July 1,
2017 and report data on January 1,
2018, and every 6 mos. thereafter (6 month cycle). For more
information, please see the Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQs): Adult Mental Health Targeted Case Management Transition
to Outcome Reporting published January 31, 2017.
Which outcome measures will AMH-TCM lead agencies report
on?
In collaboration with a
coalition of AMH-TCM lead agencies and contracted vendors, DHS’ Mental Health
Division determined that AMH-TCM agencies will report individual-level data on
employment and housing outcomes only at
this time. Data will include:
- Employment-related
outcomes which align with the informed choice-employment initiative under
Minnesota’s Olmstead Plan.
- Housing-related
outcomes which align with the informed choice initiative under Minnesota’s
Olmstead Plan.
Where
will the data be reported?
The Mental Health Information System
(MHIS) and Social Service Information System (SSIS) are the systems that
AMH-TCM agencies (and contracted vendors) will report this data to. AMH-TCM lead agencies and contracted
vendors may choose which system they report data into.
- MHIS is available for data reporting
beginning July 1, 2017.
-
SSIS won’t
be available on July 1, 2017. SSIS will be available for data reporting on September 5, 2017. An interim solution
to cover the reporting period of July 1 – September 4, 2017 is under
development. DHS is working on a temporarily solution to track data on outcome
measures if you plan to report into SSIS. We’ll make this available to you in advance
of July 1, 2017 and share this with you via the Mental Health Division’s
ListServ (see below for instructions on how to subscribe).
Training
on MHIS & SSIS with new outcome measures will be offered by DHS. Training
is for AMH-TCM agencies’ personnel responsible for data collection, analysis
and reporting. The content of this training isn’t intended for case managers
delivering services. Rather, this is for the people responsible to collect and
report on outcome measures at each agency.
