Performance Measures

Performance Measures:

a. Transition Tracking Outcomes. The goal of the JBBS program is to identify treatment service needs and assist with engagement in community-based treatment services upon release. Subcontractor shall make reasonable efforts to contact all JBBS individuals who are successfully discharged from the program and released to the community at one, two, six- and 12-months post release. The individual’s treatment status shall be recorded in the CiviCore JBBS database, or another data system as prescribed by BHA. If a client remains engaged in treatment post-release, JBBS may continue to provide support through the Subcontractor’s Recovery Support Services section of their budget, for up to 12 months. The following are the treatment status options:

ii. Deceased - In the event of death of the individual post-release.

iii. In Treatment - Individual is engaged in community-based treatment services as recommended in the transition plan.

iv. New Crime/Regressed - Individual returned to jail for violations or committed a new crime.

v. Not Applicable - Individual sentenced to Department of Corrections, Probation, Community Corrections, or treatment status not applicable at month two, six, or 12 due to prior tracking status of Deceased, New Crime/Regressed, or Treatment Completed.

vi. Not in Treatment - Individual is reported by the community-based treatment provider as not in treatment or the individual reports to not be in treatment services as recommended on the transition plan.

vii. Status Unknown - Individual cannot be located.

viii. Treatment Completed - Individual has completed treatment as recommended in the transition plan.

b. Recidivism. JBBS aims to decrease the rate of reincarceration of former JBBS participants. This approach should result in greater treatment engagement in the community and decreased recidivism through better identification and treatment of behavioral health needs. BHA may conduct an annual analysis of recidivism. The following will apply to this analysis:

i. JBBS participants who have received SUD-related treatment services or groups will be included in the recidivism analysis

 

Performance Measure Target

a. Performance Measure Target. Programs will be compliant with the contract requirements if a total of 55% or more of individuals who were released from the program with a “Successful Discharge” are considered “In Treatment” or “Treatment Completed” at the one-month transition tracking interval.

b. Recidivism Target. Programs will ensure the data in the JBBS CiviCore Database pertaining to the most recent complete fiscal year (July 1 - June 30) is verified and correct by 15th of July following the fiscal year so that the recidivism analysis may be completed by BHA.

i. DSD may withhold payment of subcontractor’s invoices if entries into the JBBS CiviCore Database are not complete by the deadline stated above.

c. Plan of Action. Programs who do not meet the performance benchmark for transition tracking or recidivism analysis shall be asked to submit a plan of action to improve program performance for the next fiscal year. Failure to comply with this performance measure could result in reduction of subsequent years’ program budgets.

Performance Measures and Reports as required by BHA

Collect, maintain, and submit data to be reported on a regular basis. All reports are due on the last day of the month following the time period required for the report.
