For those Counties who will enter their Full Service Partnership Outcomes data directly into the Enhanced Data Collection and Reporting System (DCR):

The Department of Mental Health (DMH) Performance Outcomes and Quality Improvement (POQI) unit is providing training for counties who are preparing to collect and submit Full Service Partnership (FSP) Outcomes Assessment data. County staff cannot access the Information Technology Web Services (ITWS) Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) data system and submit data until they have completed the steps below.

1. Information Technology Web Services (ITWS) Approver Designee Training (up to 2 hours via conference call)
2. Approver Designee Group Structure Development conference call (up to 1 hour via conference call)
3. Program Identification Codes Assignment (½ an hour, scheduled for each county separately via conference call)
4. Full Service Partnership (FSP) Outcomes Assessment Training (2 hours, offered monthly via conference call)
5. DCR Direct On-Line Key-Entry Training (2 hours via conference call)

If your county completed all of the steps listed above prior to May 1st, 2007, your county will need to receive training in how to use the Enhanced DCR and Updated Approver Designee Training including how to configure your groups and roles according to your county’s business needs.

Please contact POQI.Support@dmh.ca.gov to notify us of your interest in attending these trainings and we will contact you once the trainings have been scheduled.

Once counties have completed all of the requirements listed above, they can begin submitting Full Service Partnership Outcomes Assessment data.

Please contact POQI Staff at POQI.Support@dmh.ca.gov if you have any questions. Thank you!
