When to Submit an Update to the Consumer's Service Plan

There are certain circumstances where the individual service plan must be updated (other than at the annual recertification) and a new signature obtained from the consumer or their legal representative.  In general, the service plan must be updated when:

1. There is a significant change in the consumer's assessment or condition,
2. A new service is added or a previous service is ended,
3. When individual outcomes change,
4. When the consumer chooses to change their service provider, or
5. At the consumer's request.

Under these circumstances, a written update describing the change should be sent to the CRS Coordinator, Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Bureau of Prevention Treatment and Recovery, 1 W. Wilson Street, Room 851, P.O. Box 7851, Madison, WI 53707−7851.

Remember: A copy of the updated service plan must be provided to the participant and if applicable, to his or her legal representative.
