How will I know if my company has received a related services referral?

This article explains how vendor main contacts and vendor liaisons are notified of new related service referrals, how to indicate which therapist will accept the referral, and what to do if your company cannot take the referral.

After a related services referral is submitted, the vendor implementation manager will identify one or more vendors who have qualified providers to accept the evaluation and will add the vendor main contact/liaison to the ticket.  If you have been added to the ticket with an offer to accept a new related services referral, you will receive an email notification like the one in the screenshot below.

Log into the Customer Portal and open the ticket to add a comment indicating whether your company will accept this related services referral.

  • If your company accepts the referral, please specify the name of the therapist who will be assigned.
  • If you cannot accept the referral, please state this in the comment so that the Vendor Implementation Manager may refer the student to another vendor.
