What documentation must be sent to WVMI for a review?
The locality completes the WVMI CSA Checklist and provides supporting documentation. At a minimum, reviews should include the following: Initial Review: DSM-IV diagnosis including all five axes; child s immediate behavior prior to admission; alternative placements tried or explored; child s functional level and clinical stability; CAFAS/PECFAS (full instrument with all items included) and level of family support. 18-month review: The above information is required, but must include all facility and locality reports for the 18-month period. Re-Review: Localities should address any previous suggestions or concerns identified by WVMI, as well as facility and locality reports since the last review. Re-reviews are performed every 60 days. A new CAFAS/PECFAS is required every 90 days.
