A decade after the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and SAMHSA launched the first CCBHC demonstration states, CCBHCs continued to reshape how behavioral health care was delivered across the country.
The regional webinar explored how CCBHCs were improving access to coordinated, comprehensive behavioral health care for children, youth, and families, while also examining the challenges and opportunities ahead.
What the Webinar Explored:
How different CCBHC models, including Medicaid Demonstration and SAMHSA Grant-funded programs, were being implemented across New England states
The role CCBHCs played within children’s behavioral health systems of care
How clinics were advancing a flexible “no wrong door” approach to care
Ways CCBHCs were demonstrating impact and value for children and families
Funding pathways and sustainability models for families who were not covered by Medicaid
