Health Alliance (HA) Behavioral Health Screening Results

The HA provider screens WTW clients to identify any issues with AOD and/or MH. This screening is administered via a screening tool during the WTW Orientation/Appraisal. When the WTW participant agrees to participate in HA services, the following steps are to be taken by the HA provider and the EC:

A. The HA Provider:

  • Begins treating the client.
  • Completes the “CalWORKs Referral Results” form (SCD 29).
  • Emails the SCD 29 to the assigned EC.

Note: When the client chooses to incorporate HA-related services into the FS Plan, the SCD 29 is forwarded to the designated mailbox slot. Refer to Family Services (FS) Program for additional information.

B. The Assigned EC:

  • Receives the SCD 29.
  • Amends the WTW 2 Plan.
