- Abstract:
- Section 223 of the Protecting Access to Medicare Act (PAMA), enacted April 1, 2014 (Public Law 113-93), authorized a demonstration program to allow states to test new strategies for improving community behavioral health services through certified community behavioral health clinics (CCBHCs). The CCBHC demonstration aims to improve the availability, quality, and outcomes of ambulatory behavioral health services by establishing a standard definition and criteria for CCBHCs and developing new prospective payment systems (PPS) that account for the total cost of providing comprehensive services to all individuals who seek care. The demonstration also aims to provide coordinated care that addresses both behavioral and physical health conditions. CCBHCs and demonstration states must also report a common set of quality measures and report their costs as a condition of participating in the demonstration. Section 223(d)(7) requires annual reports to Congress and a final recommendation report. This is the fourth annual report to Congress. The first two reports discussed the demonstration implementation process, the selection of states for planning grants and demonstration participation, state plans for the demonstration, and early implementation findings. The third report assessed findings related to CCBHCs’ ability to provide access to the required coordinated care and provision of a comprehensive range of services. This report will assess findings on quality measures and costs in demonstration year 1 (DY1).
