Target Population Eligible clients are enrolled members of the collaborating tribes and members of other federally recognized, state recognized, and Canadian tribes residing in the project service area. Non-native family members and descendants are also eligible. The project will serve clients age 12 and older.

Target Population The majority of clients, approximately 85%, will be American Indian. Descendents of tribal members are coded as American Indian on the GPRA and in the voucher system. The remaining 15% will family members of any cultural background.

Target Numbers 3774clients over three years clients/year. To accommodate continuity of care and recidivism we estimate that as many 20% of the 5000 clients enrolled in ATR III will re-enroll at some time during the four year project period for the ATR IV.

ATR III Resource Allocation All ATR III access centers have established financial caps based on client target numbers and GPRA follow-up completion goals. Caps will be adjusted quarterly based on progress toward recruitment and follow- up goals.

ATR Client Registration and Placement Process – Client is registered in the voucher system and assigned an ATR number. – Voucher and GPRA number are the same. – Client is screened (AUDIT/DAST/CRAFFT) – GPRA is completed – Client is assigned to an Anishnaabek Healing Circle Phase (Readiness Assessment) – Clinical and/or recovery support assessment is complete if the client is in Phase II or III.

ATR Client Voucher Process – Vouchers for access, care coordination, follow-up and discharge are auto-generated by the system. – Vouchers are requested based on the client needs. – Referrals are made to tribal umbrella providers or Tier II providers as necessary based on client needs and choices. – Vouchers are shared with Tier II providers as necessary.

Client Process All Clients – Services are provided and documented in the client file. – Voucher transaction forms are completed to facilitate billing for services. – Documentation related to the transaction must be attached to or filed with the transaction form.

Client Process All Clients – Receipts should be in the client file for ATR services purchased on behalf of the client. – As you all know funds never go directly to the client for a purchase of clothing, food, etc. – Voucher transactions are entered into the voucher system. – ITC reviews and completes electronic audits on the files prior to payment. – On-site file audits are completed by ITC randomly but with notice.
