NYAPRS note: New York’s Personalized Recovery Oriented Services (PROS) licensed Medicaid program is promoting recovery, employment and community integration in integrated ways that position PROS providers well for the health home and managed care environments to come. For four years, NYAPRS has hosted an annual statewide 2 day technical assistance conference for PROS providers that has received rave reviews from the attendees.

 

This year’s program will feature a dynamic keynote by Luis Lopez from The Center for Practice Innovations and an opening plenary that will update us all on the many changes going on at the State level.

 

Friday’s plenary will offer the managed care perspective on where PROS can fit within this new payor system.

 

The Hotel block room rate has been extended to today, Monday, November 10th. Rooms are going fast – so register today! The link is below.
