The benefits of attending this networking event include:
- Allows adult BH HCBS agencies to introduce CMAs, lead Health Homes and MCOs to their agency and educate attendees about the HCBS services offered.
- Provides Care Managers with information needed to help Adult BH HCBS eligible individuals make informed choices about where to receive services.
- Allows MCOs to establish connections with HCBS providers, CMAs and Health Homes and to hear about specific workflow issues providers are having with them.
- Obtain information about the Behavioral Health IT grant program.
- Speak with HCBS subject matter experts from City/State representatives.
- Gives opportunities for providers to educate each other about other services to which they can refer program participants.
Adult BH HCBS providers will be provided with vendor tables on a first come, first serve basis. Adult BH HCBS providers and MCOs are advised to have a representative (not necessarily the same person) on hand for the duration of the event. Lead Health Home and CMA representatives may attend the event during any portion of the day to meet and network with others.
