Missouri is interested in applying to participate in a federal demonstration project that establishes new federal standards for community behavioral health providers, to be known as “Certified Community Behavioral Health Centers” (CCBHCs) and a Prospective Payment System (PPS) to purchase services from CCBHCs. This presentation describes the goals of the demonstration project, and the new federal standards for CCBHCs in order to provide a context for soliciting input from consumers, family members and other stakeholders in Missouri’s implementation of the CCBHC standards and the demonstration program.

 

Objectives:

  • Participants will develop an understanding of the goals and general structure of the federal CCBHC PPS Demonstration Project.
  • Participants will develop an understanding of the new federal standards for Certified Community Behavioral Health Centers.
  • Participants will have an opportunity to comment on, and influence, the approach to implementing the CCBHC PPS Demonstration Project in Missouri.
