Summary:
Minnesota's Shared Master Index will allow for the efficient exchange of information. By assigning each human services client an individual identification number that is used across multiple service delivery systems, the Shared Master Index (SMI) will allow caseworkers to view and assess the range of services that individual clients and families are receiving, and allow program managers and policy-makers to improve coordination of services and client outcomes.
