Element 20 -- Date Signed Indicate the date the form was signed by the day treatment program director. SECTIONS II-IV -- LEVEL OF FUNCTIONING ASSESSMENT SCALES In each of these sections, circle the indicators on the assessment scale that best describe the member's level of functioning. To score each scale, choose the number associated with the circled indicators. If the circled indicators are split between two numbers, score the scale using the lowest number in which indicators are circled, plus a decimal amount that indicates the percent of indicators beyond that number. For example, if on the Social Functioning Scale the provider circled indicators 3c, 3d, 4a, and 4b for a member, this scale would have a score of 3.5. At the bottom of each section, indicate the score for that scale. At the bottom of Section IV, enter the total LOF score, which is the sum of the scores for all three scales (Sections II-IV). SECTION V -- SCORING Likelihood of Benefit from Mental Health Day Treatment Circle the appropriate level for the likelihood of benefit and enter the percent score in the scoring box to the right of the scale.
