HCBS Settings Countdown: 336
Important Uploading Information for the HFS Portal!
When you are uploading documents for a specific site, please submit the site evidence together otherwise the site shows up multiple times and causes issues with tracking compliance. If you have already uploaded evidence for the same site multiple times we will address that internally but all future uploads should be site specific. To upload all documents for a specific site (at one time) you will do the following:
- Go to the HFS Portal, fill out the provider name, verification type and contact information.
- Click Choose Files. Hold down the Ctrl button and select all relevant files and click open.
- You will see the number of files you clicked next to the Choose files button.
- Then click submit.
We continue to encourage you to zip your files (for help here is a Microsoft tutorial). If your file is too big, you can split it into 2 or 3 zipped files and then follow the previous instructions on how to submit them together for the site.
