Service Coordination: Plan Development – Assessment

Service coordinators must complete the service coordination assessment as part of person-centered planning to identify a participant’s need for assistance accessing and coordinating care and services. The participant’s needs and supports must be documented in the assessment. The participant, parent, legal guardian, and other providers identified by the participant must be included in the process. The assessment is used to determine a participant’s prioritized needs and services which must be documented in the plan. For children, assessments must identify the family’s needs to ensure their child’s needs are met. (7-1-26)
