A New Guidance: What’s in Store in TVIS • Two other NPMs are revised  • NPM 01: Language clarification from the previous Guidance • Early screening and early intervention for all newborns for special health care needs was rewritten to emphasize the timely follow up to definitive diagnosis and clinical management for screen positive newborns • NPM 06: Language clarification from the previous Guidance • Youth with special health care needs receiving services was revised to illustrate the various aspects of adult life which one can transition

  26. Title V Block Grant Application 2007 • Return to Interim Year Reporting • A New Guidance: What’s in Store in TVIS • Enhancements • Review of System Key Points • Dates for the 2007 Application • Accessing the 2007 Application

  27. Key Points • Access to the Application is via the Internet • When you save your data, data are stored on the HRSA server where it may be accessed at your next session • You must save your data! • If you cancel without saving or close your window, you will lose the data on your form

  28. Key Points Your Browser • Use Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher as your browser • Coordinate with your State IT department to make sure you are set up properly

  29. Key Points Security • Time outs are a security requirement • If there is no communication with the server within 30 minutes, you will time out of the system

  30. Key Points Security • At the 29 minute mark, you receive a warning that you will time out and you must click the “OK” button to continue your session • You have 1 minute to respond • Be careful about having multiple Internet Explorer windows open – your warning could appear in an open window behind your active window

  31. Key Points Registration • First, you register • Each State is allowed 6 users • Each State identifies the users to MCHB to ensure integrity of use • Access will allow the user to enter data in all sections of the application

  32. Key Points Data Entry • Save your data as you work • Use the ‘Notes’ icon to enter notes at both the form and the field level • Use the ‘Instruction’ link to access the user’s guide for the form that you are in • Use the ‘Guidance’ link to review the content of the guidance for that form

  33. Key Points Forms • Numeric fields cannot have commas entered • Text fields have character limitations • Only one person from your State can access a single form at any one time • Multiple users from your State can work on different forms at the same time

  34. Key Points Notes • Note fields are not pre-populated • Historical notes are available for you to cut and paste notes from last year’s application, should they apply to this year’s application • Be careful when copying notes – some PMs/HSCIs have migrated this year but the historical notes are tied to the numbering in last year’s application.

  35. Key Points Narrative • Text fields have character limitations • Compose your copy in Word or WordPerfect for a section and note your character count including spaces. This count should be under the section limit • Then copy and paste into the section • Do not use bullets or other special characters • Hard returns do not count toward the character limits • Use the character counter on the page to monitor character use

  36. Key Points Narrative • Attachments - one attachment per section • Combine multiple attachments into one document for a section • Be consistent in the naming of your attachments • Name it by Section, Subsection and Subsection Title: • Example: IA_TransmittalLetter • Do not use attachments to work around length limitations

  37. Key Points: Data Validations • NPM’s 2-6 (CSHCN Survey) data for 2005 will be populated with the data entered last year. You may edit as needed • Completing PMs, HSCIs and HSIs: Provide actual or estimated data or, in lieu of data, a note is acceptable for reporting year • Completing OMs: Recommended but optional • Reporting PMs and HSCIs for the Territories: Notes are acceptable in lieu of any data for the PMs, HSCIs and HSIs that do not apply to the Territories
