✘ Paper Overload: Large binders for every child were difficult to handle, prone to misfiling, and inconvenient to transport.

✘ Remote Accessibility: Records were inaccessible outside the office, complicating remote work.

✘ Lost and Damaged Records: A flood in the file room nearly destroyed many records, leading to costly restoration and operational delays.

✘ Human Errors: Manual processes increased the risk of errors in record management and billing.

✘ Fragmented Systems: Existing solutions did not provide an integrated approach to managing records and workflows.

⦿ NY Early Intervention 

iCentral empowered Madison to efficiently manage and bill cases through both NYEIS and the new EI-HUB. The Coordinator Portal enabled Service Coordinators to enter notes using custom forms, automatically capturing billing units in real-time. Custom dashboards provided quick access to essential data, streamlining the generation of performance reports.

⦿ Forms

This solution allowed Tompkins to transition from paper to electronic forms with digital signatures. When the signature portal became available to parents, it was seamlessly integrated, enabling digital signatures and significantly reducing compliance delays, especially during the pandemic.

⦿ Checklists

iCentral’s checklist feature ensured compliance with state regulations and supported a structured onboarding process for new Service Coordinators.

⦿ Files

All paperwork, including scanned PDFs, is securely stored in organized folders for each child, ensuring easy access and organization.
