Project Setup • Project setup requests are submitted through this link: https://www.cognitoforms.com/DCA3/agencyandprojectsetupform • Requests should be based on guidance from the HOPWA Program HMIS Manual
Project Setup • Setup also includes: • Bed Inventory • Services • It's common for HOPWA providers to need multiple HOPWA projects setup in HMIS. • Work with your CoC Admins and HOPWA contacts if unsure of what setup to request in HMIS.
HOPWA Policies • Clients can only be actively receiving HOPWA services from one agency at a time. • We are developing a functionality within ClientTrack that will allow you to verify this. • Proper screening/eligibility needs to be done before entering client into HMIS • This should help not only determine if Client is eligible for HOPWA services, but also what particular HOPWA project the client should be enrolled into. • Client consent is not required to enter information into HMIS. It is only required to share information.
Client Security and Privacy • Organizations that only provide HOPWA services are setup where all transactional data is restricted by default. • Organizations that provide HOPWA and non-HOPWA services, must manually restrict transactional data. • Transactional data restrictions override less restricted Information Releases on client.
Data Collection • Head of Household must be client with HIV status. • This is set on the HUD Program Enrollment screen • Record HIV/AIDs barrier for any family members applicable, to populate needed assessments.
Data Collection • Medical Assistance Assessment • If "No" is selected, "Reason Why" is required.
