PROCESS UPDATE: New Request for Info Workflow

Please be aware that the Level of Care (LOC) Nurse is now able to directly request required information from the Provider to complete the LOC


If more information is needed after the LOC is summited, the LOC nurse will request this information via the PASRR LOC portal. The Provider can communicate back and upload the required documents via the portal.


Follow the steps illustrated below to communicate using the PASRR LOC portal. 

Workflow for Hospital Providers


STEP 1:

Request for information will queue up to provider/facility in Recent Alerts queue for Hospital Providers.

STEP 2:

Hospital Provider clicks on the Information needed – LOC alert type and submits info to CR via the Additional Info page.  

STEP 3:

Request for Info alert leaves Hospital Recent Alerts queue.

Workflow for Nursing Facility Providers


STEP 1:

STEP 3:

Requests for info will display in the In Process grid on the NF Individual page with a Status/Outcome of Info Requested. NF Providers can enter additional information by clicking on the Submit Additional Info hyperlink in the In Process grid.
