Dear Community Partners:

We are excited to announce that Phase 1 of the Provider Directory is launching tomorrow, October 29th!  For this phase, only select regional center staff and service providers can access the directory. 

On October 29, 2024, service provider will receive an email invitation to register for the Directory.  They will verify that their information, which is populated into the Provider Directory from existing DDS sources, is accurate.  When necessary, service providers can update information and submit changes to be approved by regional center staff. 

This is a big task and to be successful we need service providers to participate.  DDS will offer incentive payments to service providers who complete this step by November 29, 2024 through the Quality Incentive Program (QIP).  For service providers included in rate reform, participation in the Provider Directory measures is the only way to attain the up to 10 percent quality incentive portion of the reimbursement rate from January 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026.  Additional information on the incentives can be found in the Department directive.
