The West Virginia Bureau for Behavioral Health (BBH) Cooperative Agreement for Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) Planning Grant will enhance the current efforts the state of WV is currently pursuing to develop CCBHC infrastructure to serve people of all ages, across the state. BBH and the WV Department of Health and Human Resources' Bureau for Medical Services have worked closely with other cross systems agencies to prioritize efforts to establish CCBHCs as supported by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and 2022 state legislation. This proposal seeks planning funds to: 1. Establish certification infrastructure for providers participating in the CCBHC Demonstration Program, ensuring compliance with WV CCBHC Certification Criteria. 2. Establish a Prospective Payment System (PPS) for behavioral health services furnished by a CCBHC in accordance with CMS guidelines. 3. Identify providers with the capacity to serve as CCBHCs and develop an implementation plan that will enable CBHC services statewide in WV. 4. Develop and enhance the state data collection and reporting capacity necessary to participate in the CCBHC Demonstration Program and provide technical assistance to clinics to build data collection infrastructure and capacity to participate in the CCBHC program. 5. Develop the state's CCBHC Demonstration Program application for submission by March 2024 to participate in the 4 year Demonstration Program, complying with all SAMHSA and CMS requirements related to criteria, PPS, and other essential components of the program.
