Ratio versus Number for Threshold-Article 6. Risk Management and Quality Improvement. 12V
 
Regarding Article 6. Risk Management and Quality Improvement.
? 12VAC35-106-570. Reporting to the department. ?
  (a) A threshold number, as specified in the provider's policy based on the provider's size, number of locations, service type, number of individuals served, and the unique needs of the individuals served by the provider, of similar Level II serious incidents occur to the same individual or at the same location within a six-month period;   
 
?We would like DBHDS to consider utilizing a threshold ratio versus a specific number due to program sizes fluctuating.  Thank you for your consideration.
 
Respectfully,?
