WHAT IS A CCBHC?
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: For F&CS, CCBHC certification means we will be adding new client support services, expanding our current scope of clinical behavioral healthcare, and adopting a team-based, whole-person care model.

CCBHC PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: The cornerstone of a CCBHC is to enlarge services beyond mental health and co-occurring substance use treatment to fully address a variety of other pressing client needs including multiple chronic medical conditions, medication adherence, health and wellness, justice involvement, complex social support and basic needs. Clients with high needs and histories of frequent emergency department visits and psychiatric hospitalizations will receive greater intensity and specialty services to facilitate continuity of care through engagement in outpatient and home-based services instead of episodic care in a hospital setting.
This CCBHC approach has been found to optimize recovery outcomes for clients with serious mental illness and co-occurring substance use conditions; limit psychiatric hospitalizations; reduce criminal justice involvement; heighten engagement with primary care that improves medical health outcomes; increase participation in outpatient mental health treatment; improve rates of community connection, employment, education, and housing; and increase adoption of health and wellness activities. involvement, and coordination with school, DHS, and other service providers. The CCBHC approach provides rapid access to same daycare through multiple ways: phone, telehealth, mobile crisis, offices, home-based, school-based and community-based.
