Summary of Changes

POLICY

-Definition of Career Planning edited to reflect changes with the IPE Project, Assessment Services and Supports definitions.

Career planning assists with identifying a career direction and developing a plan for achieving competitive, integrated employment or self-employment through informed choice and can occur any time in the VR process.

 

PROCESS 

-Added expectation of documenting career planning in QE2 each time it occurs

1.  Initiation and Documentation of Career Planning activities

 

-Referral process for Benefits Orientation moved to this chapter as it has to happen before a Benefits Orientation can be done.

2. For individuals who are recipients of local, state, and federal benefits, use the QE2 automated process to refer for Benefits Orientation. On the Existing Benefits screen, select a staff who will complete the Benefits Orientation from the dropdown list.  Only trained Benefits Orientation Specialists will complete the Orientation.  If you, as the VR Specialist, will complete the Orientation, select your name as the person to whom the referral will be made.  The Benefits Orientation Specialist will complete all benefits services referrals and authorizations while the client has an open case. All career planning services should continue while the client is participating in these benefits services to progress towards developing the IPE in a timely manner.
