Core Rehabilitation Services Report Forms and Signatures
Date: 
Tuesday, April 16, 2019

Please be advised that ACCES-VR will no longer accept Core Rehabilitation Services (CRS) report forms with typed signatures for all services delivered in June 2019 and after. 

Starting June 1, 2019, all vendors delivering CRS will need to handwrite signatures on CRS report forms.  The hand signed report forms can then be scanned and submitted to ACCES-VR through the Electronic Reporting System (ERS) and the vendor shall keep the original, handwritten copy in their files.  ACCES-VR’s Quality Assurance Department has included this requirement as part of their survey protocol and will be implementing it at future site visits.

If you have any questions about submitting CRS reports to ACCES-VR, please reach out to the Business Office Manager at your local District Office. 

Thank you for your continued partnership with ACCES-VR to help individuals with disabilities obtain competitive, integrated employment.
