PENNSYLVANIA EMLOYEE RECONGNITION Hello George Davis. 11-7am - Sun-Thur. 11-7am – Tue-Sat 11-7am – Weekends George Davies, Davies as he is known to all of his coworkers and individuals, began his career of working to help others better their lives in the 1970’s. He spent many years working with dependent and delinquent adolescents in various roles at St. Michael’s School. On December 16, 2010 Dave began his career with EIHAB. He was one of many staff that transitioned to EIHAB when they purchased St. Michael’s School. Dave continued to work as a Direct Care Worker until the fall of 2017 when the decision to close the adolescent services came about. At that time, Dave transitioned to the IDD side and began working as a Direct Support Professional. He worked at various group homes and in 2000 he transferred to the Tioga House where he remained until his retirement in March 2024. Dave was a very dependable, time conscious employee and co-worker. He was well known for his dependability. Dave made it a lifelong goal to always be on time for his shifts no matter the weather or time of day. He is a very knowledgeable person who is willing to teach you anything he knows as long as you are willing to listen. A Community of Recognition Individual #1 – He always wanted me to have clean sheets and to do my laundry. Individual #2 – He always made sure I had clean laundry and started breakfast if I got up early. He would talk to me whenever things bothered me or I couldn’t sleep. Coworker #1 – There are so many things that can be said about George. He was a great coworker and always on time for his shifts (He expected that in return)! I hope he enjoys all of his time traveling on his bike now that he has the time for it. In all of the years that I have known him he always put everyone else first. George always did what was right for our individuals. There is nobody like him. He is one of a kind. Coworker #2 – The first things that come to mind when I think of Davies is his punctuality and compassion for others. Even when our individuals would get upset at him for asking them to do what was needed he still managed to work with them to do what was right and in their best interest. I hope he is enjoying his retirement. "We at EIHAB PA wish him all the joy of the wind on his face while he rides along in retirement. Safe travels as he travels more of North America while enjoying his retirement.

Empowering Individuals' Rights to Vote at EIHAB Human Services At EIHAB Human Services, we are committed to empowering the rights of all individuals, including those with developmental disabilities, to participate in the democratic process. Voting is a fundamental right for all Americans, and we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to have their voice heard.Federal and state laws, including the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), commonly known as the "Motor Voter Act," uphold the voting rights of people with developmental disabilities. Signed on May 20, 1993, this federal law mandates that all states follow specific provisions to ensure that every American has access to the voting process. EIHAB also reinforces these rights, advocating for the inclusion and active participation of individuals with developmental disabilities in voting. At EIHAB, we support individuals in exercising their right to vote by providing guidance and resources as they navigate the voting process. Planning ahead is key to a smooth voting experience. We encourage individuals to discuss their needs with Care Managers or agency staff early, ensuring they have the support they need, whether it’s help with understanding the ballot or accessing transportation.

It is our goal that our established and effective Compliance Program will assist the Agency in fulfilling its fundamental vision, mission, and values. As such our Compliance Plan is an integral part of EIHAB Human Services’ ongoing efforts to achieve compliance with federal and state laws relating to Medicaid billing. The Plan creates a comprehensive system of oversight for Medicaid billing, reporting and practices and describes our procedures for detecting and preventing fraud, waste and abuse. The goal of the Agency’s Compliance Program is to ensure that Medicaid eligible services are properly documented and accurately billed and that services rendered, but not properly documented are not billed. In addition, the Compliance Program establishes systematic checks and balances to detect and prevent inaccurate billings and inappropriate practices in compliance with Medicaid standards. EIHAB Human Services will communicate its compliance standards and policies through required training and communication initiatives and distribution of this Compliance Plan and the Standards of Conduct to all Affected Individuals.

When the determination is made that a compliance violation occurred involving a contractor or vendor, the Compliance Officer will notify the Chief Executive and work collaboratively to determine and execute the appropriate corrective action. The Agency will apply progressive discipline consistent with the violation. Examples of the disciplinary action that may be taken in accordance with the nature and scope of the infraction include but are not limited to: (a) verbal counseling or warning; (b) counseling with written warning; (c) retraining; (d) reassignment or demotion; (e) suspension without pay; and (f) termination of employment, contract, assignment, or appointment.

The Compliance Officer will maintain a written record of all disciplinary actions taken against Affected Individuals related to non-compliance and violations, including verbal warnings, and will reference these records when necessary to ensure consistency in application of disciplinary measures. The Compliance Officer will provide a report on disciplinary actions taken to the Compliance Committee and the Board of Directors. Disciplinary Action -Supervisory Managers and supervisors will be disciplined for failure to adequately instruct their subordinates, or for failing to detect noncompliance with applicable policies and legal requirements, where reasonable diligence on the part of the manager or supervisor would have led to the earlier discovery of any problems or violations and would have provided EIHAB Human Services with the opportunity to correct them. Auditing and Monitoring Internal Audits Ongoing evaluation is critical in detecting non-compliance and will help ensure the success of EIHAB Human Services’ Compliance Program. An ongoing auditing and monitoring system, implemented by the Compliance Officer, in consultation with the Compliance Committee, is an integral component of our auditing and monitoring systems. On an annual basis, the Compliance Officer, in conjunction with the Chief Executive, Senior Management, and Compliance Committee, will develop an audit plan based on an organizational risk assessment. This ongoing auditing and monitoring will evaluate at minimum, the following risk areas: Billings; Payments; Ordered services; Medical necessity; Quality of care Governance; Mandatory reporting; Credentialing; Contractor, subcontractor, agent or independent contract oversight; Review of contracts and relationships with contractors, specifically those with substantive exposure to government enforcement actions; Review of documentation and billing relating to claims made to Federal, State and third-party payers for reimbursement; Compliance training and education; Effectiveness of the Compliance Program; and Other risk areas that are or should be reasonably identified by EIHAB Human Services through its organizational experience. The audits and reviews will examine EIHAB Human Services’ compliance with specific rules and policies through on-site visits, personnel interviews, general questionnaires (submitted to employees and contractors), and record documentation reviews. Results of all auditing and monitoring activities will be reported to the Compliance Committee and Board of Directors. Compliance Plan Integrity Additional steps to ensure the integrity of the Compliance Plan will include: The Compliance Officer will be notified immediately in the event of any visits, audits, investigations or surveys by any Federal or State agency or authority and shall immediately receive a photocopy of any correspondence from any regulatory agency charged with licensing EIHAB Human Services and/or administering a Federally or State-funded program or county-funded program with which EIHAB Human Services participates. Establishment of a process detailing ongoing notification by the Compliance Officer to all appropriate personnel of any changes in laws, regulations, or policies; as well as appropriate training to assure continuous compliance. Response to Compliance Issues Violation Detection EIHAB Human Services maintains a formal confidential and anonymous compliance reporting process to encourage the reporting of any compliance concerns. Affected Individuals must promptly report any compliance concerns to Compliance Officer, the immediate supervisor, a member of Management, or a member of the Compliance Committee. Service recipients, vendors, and any party conducting business with EIHAB Human Services may report compliance concerns to the Compliance Officer through the confidential or anonymous reporting process. As part of its Compliance Program, EIHAB Human Services will ensure that all reports of compliance concerns are immediately and objectively investigated and resolved promptly. Such investigations may be conducted by the Compliance Officer, members of the Compliance Committee, other employees or external parties as indicated or recommended by the Compliance Officer, the Chief Executive or legal counsel. The Compliance Officer will take immediate measures to secure relevant evidence or documentation and will ensure the confidentiality of any information obtained from a report, interview or through an investigation, unless otherwise required by law. Unless a potential conflict of interest exists, the Compliance Officer will inform the Chief Executive of any pending investigations. The Compliance Officer or Chief Executive will arrange to retain legal counsel, as deemed appropriate. Reporting The results of the investigation and remedial actions will be communicated confidentially to the Chief Executive, members of the Board of Directors, and other employees based on a need-to-know basis. The Compliance Officer shall report to the Compliance Committee regarding each investigation conducted unless conducted under attorney privilege. At the conclusion of an investigation involving legal counsel, he/she shall issue a report to the Compliance Officer, Chief Executive Officer, and Compliance Committee summarizing his or her findings, conclusions and recommendations and will render an opinion as to whether a violation of the law has occurred. The report will be reviewed with legal counsel in attendance. Any additional action will be on the advice of counsel. Rectification If the Compliance Officer, in consultation with legal counsel, identifies credible evidence or credibly believes that a State or Federal law, rule, or regulation has been violated, the Compliance Officer will promptly report such violation to the appropriate governmental entity, where such reporting is otherwise required by law, rule, or regulation. If EIHAB Human Services identifies that an overpayment was received from any third-party payer, the appropriate regulatory (funder) or prosecutorial (attorney general/police) authority will be appropriately notified with the advice and assistance of counsel. It is our policy to not retain any funds, which are received as a result of overpayments. Overpayments will be reported and refunded to Medicaid in accordance with the appropriate self-disclosure protocols and any required time frames. In instances where it appears an affirmative fraud may have occurred; appropriate amounts shall be returned after consultation and approval by involved regulatory and/or prosecutorial authorities. Systems shall also be put in place to prevent such overpayments in the future. Recordkeeping Regardless of whether a report is made to a governmental agency, the Compliance Officer shall maintain a record of the investigation, including copies of all pertinent documentation. The Compliance Officer will organize the information so that the Agency can determine if an infraction occurred. The Compliance Officer will securely maintain all notes of the interviews, all evidence and review of documents as part of the investigation file. This record will be considered confidential and privileged and will not be released without the approval of the Chief Executive Officer or legal counsel.
