Hello everyone!
Our three year accreditation survey with CARF will be happening sometime in June. I am happy to note that we will be completing the survey in a completely electronic manner. We worked hard to prepare to have this survey be all electronic and I am happy to share Therap and many other forward thinking ideas with the CARF surveyors.
Have any of you been through a CARF survey since you began using Therap? If so, what did you notice that was different as a result of using Therap? Who has completed a survey in an electronic format? Any words of wisdom?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

We completed a CARF survey just a few months after starting Therap. We created read-only Surveyor accounts for each CARF surveyor and gave them a brief introduction to using the system. We’ve also done this for state surveys since then. It is important to have someone nearby who is very familiar with Therap reporting in case the surveyor had questions finding or interpreting the data. Overall the surveyors have been thrilled with the electronic approach especially that records are immediately accessible and legible.
Thanks for the feedback Bryan!
