In September 2016, the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) contracted with Mathematica and its subcontractor, the RAND Corporation, to conduct a comprehensive national evaluation of the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) demonstration. ASPE is overseeing the evaluation in collaboration with CMS. Working with these federal partners, Mathematica and RAND designed a mixed-methods evaluation to examine the implementation and outcomes of the demonstration and to provide information for HHS to include in mandated reports to Congress. This report describes: (1) changes in CCBHC rates and costs from the first demonstration year (DY1) to the second (DY2); (2) performance on quality measures in DY1; and (3) the extent to which states provided quality bonus payments (QBPs) to CCBHCs for DY1. Future updates and reports will present data on quality measure performance in DY2, examine changes over time in quality of care, and present findings on the impact of the demonstration on Medicaid service utilization and costs among beneficiaries who did and did not receive CCBHC services within states with sufficient data.
