Fees are still undetermined.  At APHA, Kaye Bender announced they are still working on it. . . I don't expect the fee schedule to be announced for a while still.

Marion won't apply in 2011 for the same reasons mentioned by Pat.
Has anyone heard what the cost will be?

Policies - I am certain that the PHAB reviewers assigned will come from organizations that have both management and represented employees and will know your dilemma; if i were preparing i would probably pick the one that covers the largest portion of my PH workforce and attach note there are other groups that have policies but the overlap is 90+% and the differences are trivial for this level of review.

Pursuit - i also am curious who will be applying in 2011.

Hello!

I was hoping someone could help me out with a question I had on Part A and the standards relating to personnel policies.  We are running into the issue of multiple policies for each requirement.

For example in A 1.4 : Hours of Work, Benton County has a policy provided by the Human Resources department internally for exempted staff and one for the AFSCME Union employees also pertaining to hours of work. Finally, we have an ONA policy for these same criteria for the nursing staff.

My question is should we include all of these policies as evidence? We are not to provide more evidence that asked for, but each policy is relevant to a specific group. If we are to choose one policy, which takes precedence over the rest?

Also, I was curious to see which counties are actively pursuing accreditation this year?

Thank you!

Divneet
