9/11/17 HUD Data Dictionary Changes Update
We expect to release an update to ServicePoint that will be available on Training Sites and a Demo Site for those who do not have a Training Site Friday, September 15th which will contain most of the HUD Data Dictionary 2017 updates. Specifically, we expect this version to include the following set of the HUD Data Dictionary updates:
  • Question and Picklist Changes for Section 3 (Universal Data Elements) 
  • Question and Picklist Changes for Section 4 (Program Specific Data Elements)
  • Most of the Provider Admin Changes for Sections 2.6 (Federal Partner Funding Sources), Section 2.7 (Bed and Unit Inventory), and Section 2.8 (Additional Project Information)
  • New 2017 RHY and VASH Assessments – due to significant changes to the data collection stage for various elements for these two specific program types, we will create several new 2017 RHY and VASH assessments for your use.
This version will NOT contain ALL of the HUD Data Dictionary 2017 changes and will only be applied to training/demo sites to assist with user trainings before 10/1/2017.
Following this version, we will release another version by 10/1/2017 which will have the remainder of the HUD Data Dictionary 2017 changes, which include the following:
  • Any remaining Provider Admin Changes for Sections 2.6 (Federal Partner Funding Sources), Section 2.7 (Bed and Unit Inventory), and Section 2.8 (Additional Project Information) 
  • Updates for the PATH, AHAR, CoC APR, SSVF, and ESG CAPER reports to accommodate the HUD Data Dictionary updates.
This version will be available to be applied to both training sites and live sites.
We are currently finalizing some additional documentation to accompany the several documents that are currently available in the Mediware Customer Community Libraries. Searching for "2017 Data Dictionary" will allow you to easily find the relevant documentation.
We will send out more announcements as soon as these upgrades are available.
Please contact your CCA if you have further questions.
