004 - SCOPE OF SERVICES
The Center for Health Care Services ("CHCS", "CENTER") is seeking Proposals from qualified and experienced entities
("RESPONDENT") to provide a comprehensive Augmented Intelligence (AI) Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool
capable of supporting the CENTER'S mission to facilitate effective care, delivery and coordination. The awarded vendor
must provide an AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool that will support the CENTER'S current needs and be capable
of supporting the CENTER'S growth and development in the behavioral health sector as the Information Technology
environment changes. The CENTER is searching for a tool to enhance workforce quality through the strategic
augmentation of human capabilities and the automation of key activities. This includes but is not limited to: enhancing
service delivery to CENTER consumers, improving access, efficiency, and quality of care, while supporting user, clinical,
operational and financial workflows, as further defined in this Request for Proposals ("RFP").
The CENTER currently uses Netsmart - MyAvatar as its primary electronic health record (EHR) and is searching for an AI
Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool capable of integrating and complementing the Netsmart - MyAvatar EHR system.
The AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool would need to support and enhance various clinical roles and streamline
documentation and workflows to reduce clinician burnout, improve documentation quality, and ensure compliance with
local, state and federal statutes and regulations.
Applicants should provide a comprehensive overview of their AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool and its
application within the behavioral health industry and confirm ability to integrate with the Netsmart - MyAvatar EHR system.
The overview should include a detailed description of the AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool and its key function
that adds value to behavioral health clinical workflows, improve documentation quality, and ensure compliance with local,
state and federal statutes and regulations.
A. Scope of Work
The scope of this project includes the design, training and deployment of an AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool
intended for integration with the CENTER'S EHR system. The objective of the project is to support behavioral health
providers across a variety of clinical settings.
Key components of the project scope include, but are not limited to:
The RESPONDENT must ensure the AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool will allow for real-time transcription and
note-writing assistance, and be compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and any
other state or regulatory agency pertaining to AI. RESPONDENT must be able to articulate a clear implementation
timeline and strategy that is compatible with behavioral health clinical workflows (or changing workflows, as needed) and
the Netsmart - MyAvatar EHR system.
Tool Integration and Configuration. The AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool proposed must be capable of
interfacing with the CENTER'S EHR system, with an emphasis on security, data privacy, and ease of use. It should also
offer seamless EHR integration and support documentation, clinical decision support, and workflow automation.
Training and Change Management. The RESPONDENT will provide initial training during the implementation process
and continuous support and training materials for CENTER staff, including live sessions, documentation, and user guides
thereafter. A clear management approach should be proposed to support staff adoption, competence, and to address
potential workflow disruptions.
Data Collection and Evaluation. Throughout the utilization of the AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool, the
RESPONDENT will work with the CENTER to collect qualitative and quantitative data related to usability, efficiency gains,
clinical outcomes, and user satisfaction. The RESPONDENT will also provide reporting tools or dashboards for real-time
monitoring and periodic evaluation for testing and validation.
Security & Compliance. Comply with HIPAA, 42 CFR Part 2, and other applicable regulations, including role-based
access controls, data encryption, and audit trails.
Modules and Capabilities. RESPONDENT should propose an AI Clinical Documentation Assistance Tool solution and
applicable add-ons, to include functionality items and features for any items to meet the requirements of this Scope of
Work. Potential capabilities could include, but are not limited to multi-service progress notes, ambient listening, charting
and care documentation continuity, etc.

| Technical Specifications. At a minimum, the CENTER'S EHR requires a full note write-back for progress notes. |
|---|
| Inclusion of section-level write-back is preferred for treatment plan development to include, but not be limited to, the |
| following sections: needs, goals, objectives, and interventions. |
| The CENTER'S EHR supports both FHIR APIs and HL7v2 for integration. While The CENTER anticipates that an |
|---|
| embedded user interface (UI) would be the most streamlined access method for the proposed solution, RESPONDENTS |
| should propose a solution that meets the requirements of this Scope of Work. The CENTER also recognizes that many |
| solutions may be Google Chrome(TM) extensions that would be an overlay for the CENTER'S EHR with application |
| programming interfaces (APIs)." |
