NYAPRS Note: Given the current changes in funding sources, the Affordable Care Act, Managed Care, Health Homes, DSRIP, HARPS and all the changes we are facing, it becomes more important than ever for behavioral health providers to have the capacity to report meaningful outcomes to stakeholders. The Mental Health Center of Denver has developed a systematic way of measuring recovery outcomes which are utilized in treatment planning, clinical work, as well as in reporting results to stakeholders. This webinar will present these measures and describe the system in which they are used. We are pleased to be able to have Roy Starks and Shawna McGuckin, from the Mental Health Center of Denver as our presenters.
The MRLC is a special Members only benefit.
