- Description
- The following verbiage is hereby added to update PWS section 8.5.1 REFERRAL/ADMISSION per recent VHA policy change dated October, 23, 2023: Contractors must ensure timely, same-day whenever possible, admissions to their program in accordance with VA policy. Program admission is defined as the time from when the referred Veteran is ready to enter transitional housing to the actual placement in an available bed with the goal of same-day admission or no more than 72 hours. If a Veteran is directly admitted to the Contractor s facility prior to engagement by VA homeless program staff, the Homeless Operations Management and Evaluation System (HOMES) assessment Interview must be completed within 14 days of admission, consistent with existing CRS and HOMES policies (HOMES Reporting Policy). VA staff may complete parts of the admission process to expedite admissions. Per VHA Directive 1162.04 CRS, HCHV liaisons must verify Veteran s eligibility for program participation within one business day from admission. In the event, that a Veteran is admitted to an HCHV CRS program but subsequently found to be ineligible, the HCHV CRS liaison must immediately work with the Veteran to secure other placement within available VA or community programs. VA will pay for a maximum of four days from the day of admission to allow the provider and HCHV CRS liaison time to locate and arrange an alternate placement.
