Each annual report shall be reviewed by the department, and a
determination as to whether a planning or service area's EMS is in compliance
with Iowa Code section 455 J.3 shall be made by January 1 of each year. Reports
shall be reviewed for the following:
1. Completeness in terms of addressing all of
the elements set forth in
567-1116. (455J).
2. Progress toward achieving the objectives
and targets set forth in the EMS.
3. Clear demonstration of continuous
improvement in terms of progress toward achieving the objectives and targets
set forth in the
EMS.
Upon achievement of these objectives and targets, a
reevaluation and decision will be needed to verify whether a new target should
be assigned to an objective or, if the objectives and targets were not
achieved, what new initiatives should be incorporated into the EMS. Planning
and service areas shall review procedures on a regular basis and revise as
appropriate.
