  6. Shared Assessment Requirements Technology Technology IAR Outcome and approach going forward: Joint Assessment and IAR Implementation Assessments Increased sharing How to Share How to Share Shared Assessment Model / Business Process Mapping Common Consent Processes Common Consent Processes Common Privacy Framework

  7. What is Shared Assessment? A process that reduces the number of times consumers have torepeat the same information. Health Service Providers (HSPs) working together on OCAN assessments to ensure that consumers are not unnecessarily assessed across multiple Community Mental Health (CMH) services. The guidelines and processes that support the goal of a single OCAN assessment every six months for each consumer, regardless of how many CMH services they access. 7

  8. Shared Assessment Vision 8

  9. Shared Assessment Vision Current Situation Multiple assessments for same consumer Vision One assessment and one submission of CDS per consumer 9

  10. Shared Assessment Blueprint

  11. Benefits of Shared Assessment Reduces the number of assessments Assessment process is consumer-focused Supports coordination of services between organizations Improves information sharing through common practices Increased collaboration resulting in a better working relationship between organizations Workers have a common understanding of the consumers’ needs and goals. 11

  12. Challenges of Shared Assessment Collaborating on a single assessment takes some additional time and energy Explaining the process of shared assessment to consumers may take some practice Using a new technology like IAR can be challenging at first Developing effective methods of communication between HSPs takes effort and may evolve over time 12

  13. Roles, Materials and Processes

  14. Shared Assessment Roles – OCAN Lead Individual responsible for receiving assessment information from other CMH functional centres that provide service to a consumer. The OCAN Lead is also responsible for completing and submitting the OCAN assessment. The OCAN Lead is an individual within an organization 14

  15. Shared Assessment Roles – Contributing Provider A Health service provider who provides assessment information of a consumer to the OCAN Lead, but is not responsible for completing and submitting OCAN. 15

  16. Overview of Materials and Processes Materials Processes Determining the OCAN Lead Communication To consumers To staff Privacy and Security Collecting Information Sharing information Addressing Challenging Scenarios 16

  17. Determining OCAN Lead

  18. Steps to determine OCAN Lead Determine if other service providers are involved Review Lead Criteria with other service providers Propose an OCAN Lead to the consumer 18

  19. 1. Determine if other service providers are involved Steps: ask the consumer if other services are involved check IAR If no other service is involved: You are the OCAN lead If other services are involved: Review OCAN Lead criteria with other service providers 19

  20. For new and existing consumers Sequential criteria for workers to determine OCAN Lead: Organization(s) with the fullest OCAN collection (i.e., who completes the type of OCAN with the most information) Services without planned regular contact will not be the OCAN lead where individuals are receiving other services (unless sole service provider) Service provider choosing to be responsible for assessing on the broadest range of needs 2. Review OCAN Lead Criteria with other service providers 20

  21. 3. Propose an OCAN Lead to the Consumer Propose OCAN Lead to consumer If consumer agrees, proceed to collaborate on a single OCAN If consumer does not agree, ask for consumer’s preference between multiple service providers completing the same type of OCAN, who are able/willing to assume the OCAN Lead role Communicate consumer preference to participating service providers 21

  22. OCANLead Checklist 22

  23. OCAN Lead Checklist – more than one service

  24. OCAN Lead Checklist – more than one service Support within Housing and Dual Diagnosis both assess on a broad range of needs and complete Full OCAN. Support within Housing and Dual Diagnosiswill decide together who will be OCAN Lead.

  25. OCAN Lead Checklist – more than one service

  26. OCAN Lead Checklist – more than one service Case management and C&T both assess on a broad range of needs and complete Full OCAN. Case Management and C&T will decide together who will be OCAN Lead.

  27. How do you propose a Lead? It’s all about the conversation! Between the service providers involved Between the consumer and service providers Together let’s work through some scenarios. Who becomes the OCAN Lead? Who becomes the Contributing Providers? 27

  28. How do you transfer a Lead? It’s all about the conversation! Between the service providers involved Between the consumer and service providers Together let’s work through a scenario. Who becomes the OCAN Lead? Who become the Contributing Providers? 28

  29. The Lead and Contributing Providers are determined … now what? Privacy and Security Communications To Consumers To Staff Collecting and Sharing Information MH Functional Centre Use Other Information Managing Challenging Scenarios 29

  30. I’m the Lead – now what? Processes I am responsible for: Privacy and Security Communicating to Consumers Collaborating with other service providers What? Content: MH Functional Centre Use, etc. How? Communication Methods Inputting and uploading the single OCAN 30

  31. I’m the Contributing Provider – now what? Processes I am responsible for: Privacy and Security Communicating to Consumers Collaborating with other service providers What? Content: MH Functional Centre Use, etc. How? Communication Methods 31

  32. Privacy and Security Responsibilities

  33. Communicating to Consumers Develop Key Messages for Consumers that describe: Purpose of having a single OCAN Benefits and concerns of sharing The Process of shared assessment consent according to your local consent processes and policies Brainstorm activity * Should there be any challenges in developing messaging, flag these as a group. 33

  34. Collaborating with other Service Providers on an OCAN?

  35. Topics Timeline Considerations for OCAN Lead Considerations for Contributing Provider What is shared? Functional Centre Use and additional information How do we share? Communication methods Brainstorm activity 35

  36. OCAN Shared Assessment 30-day Timeline OCAN Lead contacts all contributing providers (Note: Specify dates) All input received by contributing providers 1 7 25 30 OCAN Lead Complete and submit OCAN 36

  37. OCAN Shared Assessment 30-day Timeline Considerations for OCAN Lead: It is the expectation as an OCAN lead that they will contact all contributing providers in the time prescribed OCAN lead should specify dates at the time of initial contact There is only a 30 day window to complete an OCAN Considerations for Contributing Provider: The expectation is that the Contributing Providers must provide the information to the OCAN Lead in the time prescribed Absence of information from contributing providers will not be included in submitted assessment Assessment contribution will not be attributed to your HSP 37

  38. What is shared? Functional Centre Use information If a consumer already has an OCAN lead in place: Contact the lead to identify yourself as a Contributing Provider Provide your Functional Centre Use information to lead Contribute to single OCAN If a consumer does not have an OCAN lead in place: Complete an OCAN as the OCAN lead Include your Functional Centre Use information (as you do now) 38

  39. Core OCAN Elements Cheat Sheet My Cheat Sheet My Organization LHIN : My LHIN My Organization Name: Sunny Community Centre My Organization Number: 1234 My Program Name: Sunny Days My Program Number: 6789 My Functional Centre Name: Social Recreation My Functional Centre Number: 715 10 76 81 **Have the individual who reports MIS develop your cheat sheet! 39

  40. What is Shared?Additional Information What additional information do you share? Why do you think this information should be included in the OCAN? How is it Helpful to the Consumer? 40

  41. How is Information Shared?Communication Methods How do you share the information? What methods of communication would you use to exchange information with other services providers?

  42. Brainstorm: What and How Think about the questions from the previous slides as you brainstorm: 1. What additional information do you share? 2. How do you share the information? 42

  43. As a contributing provider, how can I make use of OCAN information? I can use it … In the conversation with the consumer To inform the service plan In conversations with other workers (with appropriate consent)

  44. As a contributing provider, what information do I need to keep locally? When I review a completed single OCAN, how can I make use of this information? Step 1: Review OCAN with consumer Step 2: Record using one of the following options Option 1: Record any changes to case notes or use your HSP specific template for documentation Option 2: Enter changed assessment as a ‘review’ OCAN Option 3: Enter identical assessment as a ‘re-key’ OCAN Assumptions: We want to reduce duplication where possible. There is now no need for contributing provider to have a copy of the assessment for reporting or viewing purposes. Recommendation: Follow organizational policy regarding use of existing OCAN in service provision 44

  45. Review or Rekey? The Contributing Provider’s OCAN Review You receive a copy of a consumer’s OCAN You are entering information from OCAN and are making updates to the consumer’s current situation The reassessment cycle remains the same Rekey You receive a copy of a consumer’s OCAN You are entering information exactly as it appears on the OCAN You are rekeying to have an electronic copy of the assessment in your local system The reassessment cycle remains the same 45

  46. Managing Challenging Scenarios

  47. Activity: Managing Challenges In small groups, brainstorm about how you would manage the following challenging scenarios: You and others disagree on selection of the Lead. A participant is not meeting timeframes for information sharing (Lead and/or Contributor) OCAN Lead not completing OCAN within the 6-month timeframe What if person wants to do self assessment with one agency and they are not the lead? Disagreement on domains (e.g.: no need vs. met need)

  48. Managing Challenges In Implementing the Shared Assessment model, some challenges may arise: Steps: Attempt to resolve at the worker level. In the event of a discrepancy, the Lead is responsible for the information. E.g. If there is a variation in the need rating, the Lead’s determination appears in the OCAN with the discrepancy documented in comments Follow agency policy/processes around escalation if required What do you need to do? Review your organization’s policy If necessary, who do you escalate to? What is the procedure for resolution of conflict/ issues with other organizations? 48

  49. Shared Assessment Model OCAN and Sharing OCAN and Sharing OCAN and Sharing OCAN and No Sharing Results in one instance of OCAN and CDS OCAN and Sharing OCAN and No Sharing Results in multiple instances of OCAN and CDS Results in multiple instances of CDS (highest aggregate level) No OCAN Non-HICs

  50. Who is involved in Shared Assessment? Functional Centres in HSPs that have agreed to participate (Shared Assessment go-live dates to be determined) Anyone using IAR with whom you have clients in common and wants to collaborate on assessment (you may have to teach them about it!) HSPs that are not using IAR may not participate in this implementation of shared assessment (DSA)
