If you use MediSked Connect and you're not part of the conversations happening on our MediSked User Group Discussion Board, you're missing out! 

The Connect User Group Discussion Board is available 24/7 and we encourage you to use it to ask questions, make suggestions, and communicate best practices from user-to-user, with involvement from MediSked Connect resources.

And trust me when I say, we're reading/listening! The MediSked Connect Development and Product Management organizations rely heavily on feedback from Connect users and we use it to make the software even better.

If you submit a new idea or your feedback to the MediSked User Group Discussion Board between today and the Q4 User Group Meeting on January 21^st, 2016, you'll receive a MediSked User Group Mug for your participation.  

We'll pick one of your posts to share live at the Q4 User Group Meeting, and send the author a M.U.G. Mug filled with goodies!

Today has been a very exciting day at the MediSked Office in Rochester, NY.

This morning we were joined by Dr. Jan Abelseth from Partners Health Plan and together we celebrated PHP's latest big accomplishment - passing the CMS Readiness Review.

We’re incredibly proud to have designed and developed the systems and solutions that make New York State's new model of managed care possible and we are absolutely thrilled that the auditors were so impressed. 

If you're not familiar with this new FIDA-IDD or our person-centered comprehensive assessment that's integrated with a fully electronic life plan / individualized service plan and linked directly to habilitation plans, active treatment plans, and individual protective oversight plans you can read about it here:

Ok, so it's not actually this piece of journalism that you should read - and it's not really just one piece. It's five. 

But hear me out...because it's worth it.

The Star Tribune just wrapped up a five day special report project titled A Matter of Dignity, which takes a look at how Minnesota isolates and marginalizes thousands of adults with disabilities.

The issues they tackle are not just issues in Minnesota. Each article is brilliantly written, poignant, thought-provoking, and honest. The stories they tell are real and the accompanying photos are just as exceptional and so full of truth and emotion. 

If you don't have time to read them now, I urge you to bookmark the page and read them when you do have time. You won't regret it.
