The DDS seeks to establish a Master Agreement (MA) for the provision of various clinical and educational consultative services to be purchased on an as-needed basis. All qualified providers will be added to the Master Agreement. The Department of Developmental Services seeks to purchase clinical and educational consultation to DDS, DDS contracting providers and nursing home staff on a full range of topics including the provision of active treatment compliance as defined by Title XIX and adhering to the requirements of the Rolland "Active Treatment Settlement Agreement". This consultation may also include developing strategies for work with families and consumers to encourage community placement as an alternative to nursing home care, or to assist the Department in monitoring compliance with active treatment standards. Some of the possible acceptable clinical areas of expertise to offer this service include individuals with a Master's level degree in social work, education, nursing and psychology with expertise in Title XIX compliance.
