Online Tracking Incident System (OTIS)
OTIS is a web-based application the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals (DHH) developed in April 2003. It provides state agencies, health care providers, and Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) support coordinators an online method for submitting state and federally required reports of alleged neglect, abuse, injuries of unknown origin, misappropriation of client property and critical incidents. If you are not reporting to OCDD, select the appropriate agency below to access their OTIS informational page.
Office of Aging and Adult Services (OAAS)
Health Standards Section (HSS)
Security and Password Assignment:
Security built into OTIS allows access to only those authorized to access the system. Each person that enters incidents into OTIS must have their own username and password. It is a violation of HIPPA policy to login to OTIS-HCBS under another person's username. It is the responsibility of each Support Coordination Agency (SCA) to immediately notify the appropriate regional office, district or authority of all separated and newly hired employees. The OCDD regional office, district or authority performs password maintenance for Support Coordinators (SC's) serving OCDD Home and Community Based Waiver participants. Only one password will be issued for each SC even if they serve both populations. Passwords will not be issued to SCA employees who are not SCs.
