Early Intervention Quality Improvement Monitoring Program
IPRO, as an agent for the New York State Department of Health Bureau of Early Intervention (NYSDOH BEI), monitors providers that deliver early intervention services, and municipalities which are responsible for local implementation of the EIP, to ensure infants, toddlers, and their families have access to timely, consistent and appropriate services and administrative processes while participating in the EIP.
This Web page will provide useful information, that will help early intervention professionals and providers to ensure that services are delivered according to EI regulations and guidance, and identify opportunities for continuous quality improvement.

Early Intervention Monitoring Resource List
This list contains many helpful resources for NY State providers and municipality administrators, as they carry out EI services, evaluation, and service coordination.
Self-Assessments
The self-assessments are tools, developed and approved by the NYSDOH BEI, that can be used by providers at any time to ensure services provided adhere to regulations and guidance for EI service delivery. They are useful in preparing for a monitoring review. The self-assessments contain the indicators that comprise the monitoring tools, against which providers are assessed during their monitoring review.
