The Department of Developmental Services (DDS) is pleased to announce that the Provider Directory is now LIVE! This online portal will be used to input, store, and view information about service providers statewide. The Provider Directory will:
- Centralize information about service providers that work with multiple regional centers
- Help to clarify the organizational structure within companies
- Maintain up-to-date contact information
- Enable direct communication among DDS, regional centers, and service providers
The Provider Directory is being developed in phases, adding features over time that will be useful to our community. For Phase 1, only select regional center staff and service providers can access the directory. During the first phase, service providers will verify that the information populated into Provider Directory from existing DDS sources is accurate. Their goal will be to work together to confirm or edit service provider data. This is a big task and to be successful we need service providers to participate. DDS will offer incentive payments to service providers
through the Quality Incentive Program (QIP).
