Attention Providers Interested in the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) Medicaid Demonstration

Oct 15, 2024

Earlier this fall, MaineCare with its vendor Mercer, conducted a review of provisionally certified provider cost reports for the CCBHC Medicaid Demonstration. We used provider responses, in addition to other information, to create draft rate models for the services as part of the rate determination process*. We outlined this process during our kick-off meeting with providers on September 25, 2023. This message outlines the next steps in the process related to draft rate models.

PUBLIC REVIEW AND COMMENT 

MaineCare is holding an online public meeting on October 29, 2024, to present the recommended draft rate methodology along with the rationale. Meeting participants will have the opportunity to provide public comments. Following the meeting, the presented materials will be posted online, and the Department’s vendor will accept written comments until November 12, 2024. The Department will then respond in writing to comments with an explanation of whether and how the feedback was incorporated into the final rate determination.  

As providers and interested parties, your feedback is important during the rate determination process. We encourage you to participate.  

For questions on this process, please contact Jessica Levesque, MaineCare’s Rate Setting Project Manager.
