Welcome to the Internet home of Deerfield's LOCUS P.A.S.© and C&A LOCUS© Software
What are LOCUS© and CALOCUS©? LOCUS© and CALOCUS© are clinical tools that evaluate and determine level of care placements for psychiatric and addiction services for both adult and child/adolescent populations. They are comprehensive utilization management systems, which are designed to generate various managerial reports, aggregate patient data, track patients, and promote accurate scoring and ease of use. These tools are designed for use by clinicians and managed care organizations alike. Subsequently, they promote increased communication between providers and payers. When implemented, LOCUS© and CALOCUS© effectively benefit individuals with mental health and substance abuse issues by quickly and accurately assessing their needs without removing clinical judgement. The LOCUS© and CALOCUS© instruments were developed by the American Association of Community Psychiatrists (AACP). Deerfield offers enhanced computerized versions of these tools, enabling the clinician to perform an assessment quickly and accurately. Deerfield Behavioral Health, Inc., is the exclusive provider of software for the LOCUS© and CALOCUS© clinical assessment tools. Treatment Planning with LOCUS M-POWER© LOCUS M-POWER© (Multi-dimensional Person Oriented Wellness, Empowerment and Recovery) is an add-on treatment planning module that is designed to enhance the original LOCUS© instrument. It targets the individualized issues identified during a LOCUS© Assessment, and provides an easy way to create an treatment plan.
