Attached is an email sent to the Technology Steering
Committee (TSC) Monday. There's no CSD policy nor any consistent procedures in
place regarding the review and implementation of Data Transfer Rules (DTRs)
outside of what's in the contract. We believe that Local Service Providers
should have the opportunity to review changes in advance without having CSD,
the vendors, or the Technology Steering Committee filter them so we're sending
them out. Also, we have asked that the latest version of the Wx DTRs be published
and made open to LSPs before final adoption with the following changes:
1.A clear CSD implementation date should be
specified within the Wx rules as was done in the last CORE DTRs. The CSD
implementation date is the date that CSD expects all transfers (live) into
Weatherization Data Repository systems (Production, not testing) will be
subject to the rules and rejections will occur based on the rules in the final
DTRs.
2.A complete and correct Wx Record Rejection
Reason List should be included in the DTRs.
3.Mechanical Ventilation Measure is listed under
Mandatory as well as Optional measures. The DTRs or Data Transfer Reference
should identify it as one or the other but not both and if any record
validation for reimbursement is made, it should correctly reflect contract
requirements.
There has been no response from CSD.
Please note that it is our policy that changes to the front
end system will be implemented no sooner than 30 days after the Data
Transfer Rules are finalized. We assume that the rules are not final until a
projected CSD implementation date is set by CSD and reflected in the DTRs and
in the case of CORE CRM system DTRs that a transfer or import template is
included and correct and they are signed. The CSD implementation date is the
date that CSD expects all transfers (live) into the CORE or Weatherization Data
Repository systems (Production, not testing) will be subject to the rules and
rejections will occur based on the rules in the final DTRs.
