Title XIX - Medicaid Certification Licensure
The principal focus of an ICF/MR survey is on the “outcome” of the facility’s implementation of ICF/MR active treatment services. This attention focuses on what actually happens to individuals: whether the facility provides needed services and interventions; whether the facility insures individuals are free from abuse, mistreatment, or neglect; whether individuals, families and guardians participate in identifying and selecting services; whether the facility promotes greater independence, choice, integration and productivity; how competently and effectively the staff interact with individuals; and whether all health needs are being met.
MVAW's ICF/MR homes are re-licensed annually by the ND Department of Health and the ND Department off Human Services after the thorough, unannounced survey conducted on-site by the ND Department of Health Surveyors.
