UAS Update 

Situation Report | August 8, 2022 

 

The state Department of Health (DOH) has issued a reminder that all Health Commerce System (HCS) Coordinators should prepare for the discontinuance of LTC-30 and LTC-35 Roles by removing all LTC-30 and LTC-35 roles provisioned by their organization to any staff member or sub-contractors’ staff by end of business Monday, August 1, 2022. 

To maintain user access, HCS Coordinators may provision former LTC-30 and LTC-35 Social Assessor users with an LTC-15, LTC-20 (in some org types), or LTC-50 role, whichever single role is most appropriate to the individual staff member’s job responsibilities. As a reminder, by policy only one role may be provisioned to each user per organization per domain. Additionally, only a registered nurse licensed to practice in New York State may be provisioned either the LTC-40 RN Assessor or LTC-45 RN Assessor Supervisor role. 

Some users who transition from the LTC-30 role to an LTC-15/LTC-20/LTC-50 role will be required to complete additional training courses before they transition in order to access the UAS-NY due to the differences in the course sequence for different roles. LTC-35 users will have NO additional training requirements. 

Questions can be directed to the UAS-NY Support Desk at 518-408-1021.
