HOW AND WHY
WE HAVE A NEW FORM
5
History Behind the New Form
The new Intake/Counseling Form was developed
over a one year span of time by the MIS Task Group
The Form was tested in the field by currently
registered Counselors
Anecdotes tell us the time spent per client in
California is higher than the national average
New fields to encourage documentation of all
the actions required to assist a client
6
DATA REPORTING
= ADVOCACY
7
HOW
will more data help my clients?
Identifies specific client needs
Documents the number of people who
have the same issues –
Systemic vs. Individual
Empowers advocates who represent
Medicare consumers
8
WHY should I take the time away from
counseling to fill out more paperwork?
Hard data documents the issues Medicare
enrollees are facing daily.
Reliable numbers augment and support the
anecdotal information we have provided to CMS,
Health Plans, and Rx Plans in the past.
Data provides another format to present the
problems being faced by the seniors and disabled
clients you serve.
