On 7/26/21 the HMIS Team noticed an odd setting in the new HMIS system. We have determined that the HP workflow demonstrated in this webinar recording may no longer be correct. In the recording, the HP client is created and enrolled in an HP program. We believe that this may not be the final workflow in the new Clarity HMIS. We will provide training videos shortly to correct this in the COHHIO eLearning Center.
