The Department entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Department of Health Care Finance ("DHCF") to implement a Medicaid Rehabilitation Option for the provision of mental health rehabilitative services ("MHRS").
The purpose of these rules is to establish the MHRS program, including consumer eligibility, service standards, and provider certification requirements for providing MHRS.
Each Department-certified MHRS provider shall meet and adhere to the terms and conditions of its Human Care Agreement ("HCA") with the Department and its Medicaid provider agreement with DHCF.
