12. Process for Including Results: A Phased-In Approach
Purpose: Allow time for entities to transition from a focus on compliance to a focus on results and compliance.
Calculate the RDA Percentage by adding:
30% of the Entity’s Results Score and 70% of the Entity’s Compliance Score in year one.
40% of the Entity’s Results Score and 60% of the Entity’s Compliance Score in year two.
50% of the Entity’s Results Score and 50% of the Entity’s Compliance score in year 3 and subsequent years.
