SB1618 is a bill that mandates the Arizona Department of Economic Security's Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD) to enhance the verification system for service and treatment plans, establish an independent review process for monthly residential billing statements, and specify the information required on residential billing statements. The bill aims to ensure accuracy and consistency in person-centered service plans and behavioral treatment plans, which must now include a section to help providers identify what works and does not work for each client. Additionally, residential billing statements must contain a clear description of services rendered, the name of the service provider for each charge, and an indication of any service provider change. This bill is set to become effective on the general effective date.
