AlphaCM



Purpose of this module is to allow MCS staff to create and maintain scores for different client and provider measures in the AlphaMCS system. This is accomplished by utilizing the Measures Maintenance screen which will be used to create measure types and the scores associated with the measure. Measures are grouped, which will allow for placement and usage in specific areas of the application. The measure group type will be setup as either client or provider based. Once a Measure type is created it can then be used on the associated tile within MCS.
