Program Requirement Four (4): Scope of Services – Targeted Case

Program Requirement Four (4): Scope of Services – Targeted Case Management Services A. The CCBHC is responsible for providing directly, or through a DCO, targeted case management services that will assist people receiving services in sustaining recovery and gaining access to needed medical, social, legal, educational, housing, vocational, and other services and supports. CCBHC targeted case management provides an intensive level of support that goes beyond the care coordination that is a basic expectation for all people served by the CCBHC. B. CCBHC targeted case management should include supports for people deemed at high risk of suicide or overdose, particularly during times of transitions such as from a residential treatment, hospital emergency department, or psychiatric hospitalization. CCBHC targeted case management should also be accessible during other critical periods, such as episodes of homelessness or transitions to the community from jails or prisons. CCBHC targeted case management should be used for people with complex or serious mental health or substance use conditions and for people who have a short-term need for support in a critical period, such as an acute episode or care transition. Intensive case management and team- based intensive services such as through Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) are strongly encouraged but not required as a component of CCBHC services.
