Uniform Assessment System (UAS) for New York

In March 2013, the Office of Health Insurance Programs, Division of Long Term Care began the implementation of the Uniform Assessment System for New York (UAS–NY). The overall goal of the UAS–NY is to utilize a comprehensive assessment system within eight Medicaid home and community–based long–term care services and programs. The transition to the UAS–NY is expected to be completed by March 2014.
