Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) grant program; Dept. of Mental Health and Division of Medicaid apply for.
Mississippi's SB 2392 authorizes the Department of Mental Health (DMH) and Division of Medicaid to apply for a federal grant program (CCBHC Demonstration) through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). This bill directly affects regional mental health commissions by requiring DMH to certify and monitor clinics, while Medicaid establishes a payment system for CCBHC services. The key mechanism is enabling Mississippi to access federal funding for certified community behavioral health clinics, aligning with federal standards under the Protecting Access to Medicare Act (PAMA) of 2014. The bill does not create new services but streamlines the state’s process to join an existing federal grant program.
