NYAPRS Note: NYAPRS continues to be engaged in very active state level advocacy to best advance recovery and member interests in the state’s preparatory plans to implement the DSRIP initiative that will be critical to our success here. We are working closely with hospitals and colleague behavioral health advocacy groups and devoted a recent member call to provide information and assistance to our members in the DSRIP environment.
Next, our Medicaid Redesign Learning Collaborative (MRLC) will be presenting a two-part webinar series that will feature on-the-ground level presentations from key figures in New York and also from Texas, which has a year’s experience in a DSRIP design that includes a central role for behavioral health providers.
Join us on June 27th for the first webinar and hear NYAPRS Briana Gilmore, Director of Public Policy provide a brief DSRIP overview, and then highlight NYAPRS advocacy priorities and ways we will be helping you prepare to be a part of DSRIP priorities. Then hear Kristin Mucitelli-Heath from St. Joseph’s Hospital Health Center provide us with a ground-level analysis of how you can encourage strategic collaboration without losing creativity, and successfully partner with regional leads. As the director of regional health activities with St. Joseph’s Hospital in Syracuse, Kristin will share what leads need to hear from you to assure they are inclusive in their applications. Stay tuned for several other strategies we are pursuing to advance recovery and member innovations.
