Dear CPA Providers:
The GA+SCORE updates discussed at the CPA Partnership Meeting 11/18/19 -- including the checks for Pertussis screenings -- are now live in the system.
- Primary & secondary caregivers must have a CPR and First Aid screening in GA+SCORE at the time of the initial approval. Unlike other medical & safety checks, these records CAN be older than one year, but cannot be expired.
- Primary & secondary caregivers must have a pertussis immunization record in GA+SCORE at the time of the initial approval IF the home is being approved to accept children under 12 months. As for CPR and First Aid, this screening can be older than one year but cannot be expired. The pertussis immunization is reported on the green Members >> Medical Checks screen.
- If you entered a pertussis screening for a foster parent this week and did not enter the expiration date, please email support@gascore.com with the person ID and expiration date of that check. We will update the record for you. A missing expiration date will not prevent you from submitting the initial approval.
For more information on those changes, including screenshots, please consult the PowerPoint file linked here: https://www.gascore.com/content/?ebid=3271&lst.
If you have questions about policy, reach out to OPM following the protocols in yesterday's email "OPM Pilot: Resource Development Duty Calendar". If you have questions about GA+SCORE, contact us at support@gascore.com.
Thank you.
GA+SCORE Admin
