Complex transitions referral form to open to all lead agencies

Effective Nov. 4, 2024, the Complex Transitions Referral Form, DHS-8507 will open to all lead agencies. DHS’ Complex Transitions Team created the form to:

  • · Enhance outreach efforts.
  • · Streamline the complex transitions referral process.
  • · Ensure better support for people who receive services.
  • Background information

    DHS’ Complex Transitions Team supports lead agencies that help people transition from hospitals or institutional care back into their community. The Complex Transitions Team:

  • · Helps lead agencies navigate barriers in the transition planning process.
  • · Offers technical assistance to lead agencies.
  • · Connects lead agencies with subject matter experts from various Minnesota state departments and divisions.
  • In November 2023, the Complex Transitions Team started as a pilot project. The team worked with specific hospitals in the Twin Cities and Duluth to support transitions from the hospitals for people who face complex needs and difficulties connecting with community services.

    During the pilot project, the Complex Transitions Team accepted limited referrals. In collaboration with the county state work group and regional lead agencies, the Complex Transitions Referral Form, DHS-8507 will open to all lead agencies effective Nov. 4, 2024.
