If the LMHA is not responsible for actually training external providers, how does the rule address the issue of training and how does DSHS anticipate that training will take place?
• LMHAs are responsible for providing contractors with the information they need to comply with DSHS requirements, and for ensuring that appropriate training is provided. The RFP should specify required training and how the training is to occur (or the acceptable options), with final provisions determined during the contract negotiation process. LMHAs may choose to provide this trainingfor example, by allowing staff of external providers to attend LMHA staff training sessions. Some external providers have training capacity within their own organizational structures and can provide the training internally. The key is to address training issues at the beginning of the procurement process and state the specific requirements in the contract. It is anticipated that training would center on state mandated requirements applicable to the LMHA and any contractors. It might include reporting requirements, billing instructions, types of documentation needed, etc. Training on actual services is no
