ODP Shares Updates on SCO Performance-Based Contracting

The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) held a Quarterly Provider Forum today, June 2, 2026, to provide updates to the Supports Coordination Organization (SCO) groups. Performance-Based Contracting (PBC) has been delayed until January 1, 2027, to allow SCOs additional time for preparation and training. ODP will be offering in-person and virtual training opportunities throughout the Fall of 2026. Additional ad hoc testing will also occur.

Face-to-face monitoring and monitoring tool completion will now be separated into two distinct List A activities. Graduates may now be identified for Intensive TSM up to one year prior to graduation.

Intensive TSM may also be used for individuals with MA who require multiple intensive TSM activities for at least 3 months within a 6-month period.

HCSIS updates will include two service note formats:

• Prior to PBC (on or before December 31, 2026)
• After PBC (on or after January 1, 2027)
