DDA requires an assessment because:
(1) DDA assesses clients with a common, standardized assessment process that measures the support needs of individuals with developmental disabilities.
(2) The DDA assessment algorithms are designed to:
(a) Determine acuity scores and acuity levels for a variety of client needs; and
(b) Provide a valid measure of each client's support needs relative to the support needs of other clients who have received the DDA assessment.
