Dear Providers:

Based on feedback gathered throughout the year, we have updated and/or created RBWO Standards to support the ongoing work with children in care. The document has been posted to https://www.gascore.com/content/page.cfm/300. Appendix I indicates standards that are new or revised in the FY 2017 Minimum Standards. This document is effective July 1, 2016.

On the page linked above, you will also find the FY17 RBWO Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), which the Office of Provider Management developed to address questions from providers about the RBWO Minimum Standards, RBWO Contract Deliverables and the Performance-Based Placement measures.

If there are any questions, please contact your Monitoring Manager or Supervisor.

Thank you.
