24 Miss. Code. R. 2-54.10 - Program Requirement Two (2): Availability and Accessibility of Services - Provision of Services Regardless of Residence
A. The CCBHC
ensures no person is denied behavioral health care services, including but not
limited to crisis management services, because of place of residence,
homelessness, or lack of a permanent address.
B. The CCBHC has protocols addressing the
needs of people who do not live close to the CCBHC or within the CCBHC service
area. The CCBHC is responsible for providing, at a minimum, crisis response,
evaluation, and stabilization services in the CCBHC service area regardless of
place of residence. The required protocols should address management of the
person's on-going treatment needs beyond that. Protocols may provide for
agreements with clinics in other localities, allowing the CCBHC to refer and
track people seeking non crisis services to the CCBHC or other clinics serving
the person's area of residence. For people and families who live within the
CCBHC's service area but live a long distance from CCBHC clinic(s), the CCBHC
should consider use of technologies for telehealth/telemedicine, video
conferencing, remote patient monitoring, asynchronous interventions, and other
technologies in alignment with the preferences of the person receiving
services, and to the extent practical. These criteria do not require the CCBHC
to provide continuous services including telehealth to people who live outside
of the CCBHC service area. CCBHCs may consider developing protocols for
populations that may transition frequently in and out of the service area such
as children who experience out-of-home placements and adults who are displaced
by incarceration or housing instability.
