Certification

*Note: Becoming a certified provider does not mean that the provider is an employee of the State of Ohio, the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD), or the local County Board of Developmental Disabilities. An Independent Provider is a self-employed person who is certified to provide Home and Community Based Waiver services in the DD system in Ohio. Independent providers must be the provider of the services and cannot employ, either directly or indirectly or through contract, anyone else to provide the services. For questions about the certification process, please contact our Provider Development Coordinator, Susan Collar, at providers@greenedd.org.

Incident Reporting

For tracking of unusual Incidents, you need to maintain an unusual Incident log for each month, for each individual you work with. Even if there are no incidents to report, you will need to have a log completed to show you are mindful of the tracking. See the UIR log below.
You are required to notify our Investigative Agent of incidents semi-annually. You will need to send a report (included below) for January 1st through June 30th, and then one for July 1st through December 31st. Please email completed reports to report@greenedd.org. For any questions about incident reporting and associated responsibilities, please also email our Investigative Agent at report@greenedd.org.
