Dear Supported Living, Group Home and Group Training Home providers,
DSHS' Developmental Disabilities Administration updated the DDA Mortality Review Provider Report. The report must be completed when a client dies while receiving services, or within 30 days of transfer or admittance to a long-term care or medical facility. Some key changes include:
- Submission to DDA Case Resource Manager within 7 days of death (versus 14)
- Additions to Medical Information section
- Attachments - must include all that are applicable:
-
IISP, Nursing Plan of Care, Treatment Plan, or Negotiated Care Plan
-
Care/progress notes from the previous seven days (prior to death or hospitalization)
-
Bowel program or protocol
- Death certificate or worksheet
-
Seizure protocol
-
Specialized diet (if history of swallowing problems)
-
Client refusal of healthcare services
-
Results of any internal investigations related to death or care leading up to death
- Signature requirement removed
Effective January 1, 2019, we will no longer accept the old Mortality Review Provider Report.
