In Fiscal Year 2017, the Division began implementing the Utilization Review (UR) Budget process through its Customer Information Management, Outcomes, and Reporting (CIMOR) electronic system. Staff members from the state and from private Targeted Case Management entities who provide case management will be trained to use this new system. Training is currently being rolled out across the state.
Support Coordinators should begin using the new electronic UR Budget process according to instructions from their regions. If Support Coordinators have not yet been trained and/or instructed to begin implementation of the new UR Budget process, then they should complete paper forms per the established protocols outlined in the region-specific Support Roles and Responsibilities document housed on the Office of Autism Services’ website.
