Course Overview
This presentation is sponsored by: SiriNiti Techsource
Legislation last session authorized Idaho Medicaid to use up to $98 million dollars in ARPA COVID relief funds for one-time bonuses for direct-care staff in HBCS settings (which includes Assisted Living and PCS Home Care). Unfortunately, CMS has not yet approved this program although we all anticipate approval in the coming weeks. The amount of money each provider will receive will be based on their 2019 Medicaid reimbursements. Providers will not receive any funds without applying for it and signing an attestation that the money will be spent as intended. This webinar will help eligible employers know how to apply for these funds. We know staffing is at crisis levels and a significant one-time bonus would be so incredibly helpful.

up to 1.0 CEUs possible for a fee: $10/IHCA Members $20/Non-members
Registration/payment for a live ZOOM webinar does not guarantee CEUs will be awarded.
One [1] CEU is awarded for every sixty [60] minutes of actual live ZOOM webinar presentation time.
CEUs are awarded only to those individuals:
- Who are “registered” for the LIVE ZOOM webinar (no substitutions are made). Registered attendees receive a log-in link unique to the registrant and with a note that the link is “unique” and not to be shared, and with an additional NOTE: “IF you share your unique registration link or the phone number, you risk losing CEUs for this program!”
- In actual attendance of the presentation (ZOOM “Attendance Report” documents actual time logged-in and logged-out. During the housekeeping comments, registered attendees are informed “to receive CEUs you must attend the entire presentation and complete the polling question at the end of the presentation.”
- At the end of the presentation a polling question is provided for the registered attendee to “certify they have attended the entire presentation.”
IHCA staff will pull “Attendees”; “Q&A” and “Poll” reports from ZOOM to ascertain registrants on the webinar, length of time they were on and completion of the polling “certifying” they attended the entire program. Only those registrants will have their name submitted to receive CEUs.
REGISTRANT RESPONSIBILITY:
Registrants are not to share their log-in link or webinar phone number. Doing so could result in the authorized registrant not receiving CEUs for the session.
- If a registrant is unable to attend, there is a link at the bottom of their registration e-mail, 1 day, and 1-hour reminder e-mails that allows them to cancel their registration for a refund, prior to the start of the webinar.
Registrants must retain copies of their CEU certificate and any handouts in the event they are audited by the licensing agency.
Education offered by IHCA may also be sufficient for other license types (i.e. social work, certified dietary manager, etc.) as long as the learning objectives and educational levels of the presenter(s) meet the licensure requirements. It is up to each attendee to determine the appropriateness of a session and whether it will meet the requirements of their license type.
