    • Quarterly Newsletter: Assessment Best Practice Reminders | ServiceMatters Refresher

      Happy New Year! For this first Delaware PASRR Provider Newsletter of 2023, we cover some important best practice reminders, and share an insightful overview of ServiceMatters. As always, thank you for all you do to improve the lives of those we serve across the state.


      BEST PRACTICES: Assessment Tips & Reminders

      1. Be sure to look for emails from Maximus regarding ServiceMatters Reviews, and review the ServiceMatters training slides located in the resources tab in AssessmentPro.

      2. Occasionally Maximus will email your facility regarding location of clients after the Level II PASRR is completed. Please respond to these emails as quickly as possible.

      3. Remember to always submit a resident review before the short term approval expires. Ideally, Providers should submit a resident review 10 days before the PASRR expiration date.


      PROCESS: ServiceMatters Overview

      DE PASRR has implemented ServiceMatters reviews for any client that receives a Level II PASRR and has been recommended for Specialized Services. These ServiceMatters reviews ensure that the Specialized Services are being received in the nursing facility. Providers outside of the nursing facility should be aware that if you had a client receive a Level II PASRR, you may receive an email or phone call from Maximus asking where the client is currently located.

      Maximus asks for this information to ensure that the ServiceMatters review is sent to the correct nursing facility. Nursing facility Providers must consistently keep PathTracker up-to-date with current clients in your facility. Likewise, ServiceMatters users in AssessmentPro should be on the lookout for emails from Maximus regarding ServiceMatters reviews, and check AssessmentPro to view and complete ServiceMatters reviews.

    • SYSTEM UPDATE: Change Coming to AssessmentPro Login Process Tonight, Tuesday, November 1

      Please be aware that this evening, Tuesday November 1, Maximus IT will publish updates to the AssessmentPro system. With these upgrades comes a new way for users to update their passwords. 

      Currently, when users click the reset password button, a link will be sent to the email address you use to log into AssessmentPro, prompting you to create a new password.

      Going forward, instead of receiving a link, a verification code will be sent to your email address, which you will enter on the AssessmentPro site, then create a new password (see below):

    • Quarterly Newsletter: Take DE PASRR Satisfaction Survey | Check ServiceMatters Respondent Role in AssessmentPro | Review Important Training Materials

      SHARE FEEDBACK: DE PASRR Satisfaction Survey

      There are multiple ways to access the Satisfaction Survey for Providers and clients to give their feedback about the DE PASRR program. The Satisfaction Survey can be found on the DE Resources Page in AssessmentPro, as well as on each client PASRR outcome letter. 

      The client PASRR outcome letter provides a QR code and link to access the satisfaction survey online. Maximus would appreciate your feedback about the DE PASRR program!


      BEST PRACTICE: Ensure ServiceMatters Respondent Role is Listed in AssessmentPro

      ServiceMatters is now officially live in AssessmentPro, and all nursing facility Providers should make sure they have the ServiceMatters Respondent Role in AssessmenPro. If you have clients who receive specialized services, be on the lookout for further communication from Maximus.
