ADvantage Administration (AA) provides real-time information on all certified ADvantage providers providing services in specific OKDHS counties through the Certified Agencies Report (CAR) located in the electronic database. The provider information includes agency name, address, contact person, provider number, a list of ADvantage services the provider is certified to deliver, and other information as needed by OKDHS staff to achieve efficient service delivery. The AA certifies ADvantage case managers and case management supervisors. The AA maintains a master registry of certified ADvantage case management supervisors and case managers. Case manager certifications are based on successful completion of ADvantage case management training and demonstration of competency in case management and, for supervisors, case management supervision. The CAR is updated as additional providers are certified in an OKDHS county or if a provider loses certification. The Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA) may execute agreements to provide care only with qualified individuals and agencies and facilities which are properly licensed or certified by the state licensing or certification agency and, as applicable, Title XIX certified. The agreement is initiated by application from the individual agency or facility. The agreement expires on a specified date, with termination of the agency license or certification, or automatically terminated on notice, with appropriate documentation, to OHCA that the individual agency or facility is not in compliance with Title XIX (or other federal long-term care) requirements. The AA certifies Title XIX providers of ADvantage services with the exception of pharmacy and medical equipment and supply providers.
