Technical Assistance (TA)

Free Competency-Based training and Technical Assistance (TA) are offered to providers to enhance positive outcomes for both members and providers. This support helps providers understand compliance with state and federal regulations, improves competency in direct support roles, and enhances statewide access to information.

LTSS providers statewide can request TA, which may include tailored education and support based on their specific needs. Requests for TA can come from LTSS providers, training participants, Home- and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Specialists, Department staff, or others.

Please submit a request by emailing hcbstta@dhs.state.ia.us.
