NOTICE OF AGENCY RULEMAKING ADOPTION   AGENCY: Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Aging and Disability Services CHAPTER NUMBER AND TITLE: 10-149 C.M.R. ch. 5, § 16, Adult Protective Services: Administration ADOPTED RULE NUMBER: 2021-041 (Repeal) CONCISE SUMMARY:   This rule repeal removes outdated information regarding Adult Protective Services (APS) case records management practices, including retention, transfer, maintenance, and case review. Now that APS files are maintained electronically, this rule fails to reflect the practices of OADS. This rule was part of the Office of Elder Services Policy Manual. The Office of Elder Services and the Office of Adults with Cognitive and Physical Disabilities Services merged in 2012, establishing the Office of Aging and Disability Services. As a unit within the Office of Aging and Disability Services, APS follows the record retention policies established by the Department of Health and Human Services as well as the Maine Secretary of State.   EFFECTIVE DATE:   February 27, 2021           AGENCY CONTACT PERSON:   Hilary Gove, Policy Writer AGENCY NAME:      Maine Department of Health and Human Services                                   Office of Aging and Disability Services ADDRESS:                41 Anthony Avenue,                                    Augusta, ME 04333 EMAIL:                       hilary.gove@maine.gov TELEPHONE:            207-446-8305 Update your subscriptions, modify your password or email address, or stop subscriptions at any time on your Subscriber Preferences Page.
