In a shared home agreement, different agencies share the use of a home provider. The agency that intends to share use of the provider receives assignment from the recommending agency. A supervisor with the recommending agency creates a new assignment and generates a list of services that will be available to the sharing agency. These services default to inactive status.
Only the worker with the provider's recommending agency can add or edit a shared home agreement record. A record identifies the agency permitted to use this provider and an effective date. If the provider has more than one current recommending agency, the worker can only update the shared home agreement record for his or her own agency.
Record a shared home agreement as follows:
From the Home screen, click the Provider tab.
Click the Workload tab. The Workload screen appears.
Click the Select link next to the ID of the provider whose details you want to view. The Provider Overview screen appears.
Click the Service Credentials link in the navigation bar on the left. The system defaults to the ODJFS Approved Services tab; the ODJFS Approved Services Filter Criteria screen appears. It displays the services for which the provider has credentials.
Click the Shared Home Agreements tab. The Maintain Shared Home Agreements screen appears. It lists any shared home agreements currently in place for this provider.
Click Add Shared Agreement. The Shared Home Agreement Details screen appears.
Select the sharing agency in the Agency Permitted to Use this Home field.
In the Effective Date field, enter the date on which that agency may begin using the home.
Click Save. You are returned to the Shared Home Agreements screen.
