APD will Engage Providers on New Software System

For the past year, the Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD) has been working with the Mediware company on the development of the agency’s new client information system. Joint agency and Mediware workgroups are currently discussing the functional workflows in order to configure the system properly.

APD plans to engage service providers later this year to discuss a standardized data exchange interface to transfer data between provider owned systems and the new agency system.

The project will be phased in over time. Initially, APD internal users will have access to the system in spring 2017. The next group to utilize the new system will be waiver support coordinators, then service providers, and finally customers and their families.
