The Indiana State Department of Health has issued an updated spreadsheet and corresponding instructions for long-term care facilities to enter the COVID-19 data required to be submitted by July 14, 2020 at 6 PM EDT. The previously issued spreadsheet asked for dates to be entered as MM-DD-YYYY but was issuing error messages. The updated spreadsheet asks for dates to be entered as MM/DD/YYYY and is now functional.
The updated spreadsheet can be found here, and the updated instructions can be found here.
As a reminder, all licensed and unlicensed long-term care facilities, including assisted living communities, are required to submit the completed spreadsheet here by July 14th at 6 PM EDT, even if a facility has had no COVID-19 cases. A summary of this required data collection effort can be found here.
If you have any questions, please contact Zach Cattell, zcattell@ihca.org, Lori Davenport, ldavenport@ihca.org or Laura Brown, lbrown@ihca.org.
