CCBHC
Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics Demonstration
In 2016, MDHHS applied to CMS to become a CCBHC Demonstration state under Section 223 of the federal Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014 (PAMA). That request was approved on August 5, 2020, when the federal CARES Act of 2020 authorized two additional states-Michigan and Kentucky-to join the demonstration. As a result, MDHHS was approved for a two-year demonstration with an anticipated implementation start date of October 1, 2021.
The CMS CCBHC Demonstration requires states and their certified sites to provide a robust set of coordinated, integrated, and comprehensive services to all persons with any mental illness or substance use disorder diagnosis. Moreover, the demonstration requires and emphasizes 24/7/365 crisis response services (e.g., mobile crisis services).
MDHHS is committed to supporting CCBHCs by providing ongoing training, technical assistance, and resources to sites as they prepare for certification and throughout the demonstration. See the Calendar of Events for upcoming opportunities.
