Why are the rates higher for the hospital-based PHP vs community-based, and why are they separated into addiction vs mental health?
Response: The hospital-based PHP are required to meet federal CMS requirements https://www.cms.gov/medicare-coverage-database/view/article.aspx?articleid=56850&ver=33& :
Level A is an intense level of service provided by at least three licensed health care professionals for at least four hours and no more than eleven hours per day for at least three days per week.
- Billing Code: H0035
- Revenue Code: 905
Level B is an intermediate level of service provided by at least three licensed health care professionals for three hours per day for at least two days per week.
- Billing Code: H0040
- Revenue Code: 912
As these are overseen by a physician, the reimbursement rates are higher. The community-based PHP could be multi-disciplinary and serve co-occurring conditions, but wouldn’t require physician oversight in alignment with 75-09.1-05 and 75-09.1-05.1.
“Payment may only be made for partial hospitalization psychiatric services that are hospital based”. That would mean that we could not collect the daily rate associated with that level of care?
Response: The NOFO is for either hospital-based or community-based PHP depending upon which population you would be serving. Community-based PHP would be SUD-specific and would abide by licensing guidelines found here: https://ndlegis.gov/information/acdata/pdf/75-09.1-01.pdf.
Are there budgetary items that are unallowable – for example, would minor renovations or enhancements to an existing space be an allowable item?
Response: Minor renovations or enhancements to an existing space would be allowable.
For other allowable items, reference 2 CFR Part 200 – Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards. These requirements and principles apply to all North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services Grants, regardless of funding source.
The strength of the behavioral health workforce in North Dakota comes from a wide range of providers, consisting of large, statewide organizations, to one-person shops, all serving the community. Providers represent every area of service, culture, gender, faith, etc. and work together to support participant’s choice and the many different roads to recovery.
Free Through Recovery is a community based behavioral health program designed to increase recovery support services to individuals involved with the criminal justice system who have behavioral health concerns.
The purpose of this program is to provide support to individuals in recovery by increasing access to supportive living environments that commit to best practices in Recovery Housing. This will be accomplished through the provision of up to 12 weeks of an eligible individual’s recovery housing expenses, paid directly to the Recovery Housing provider.
