This is an Established Rates document for Residential Treatment Services (DHHS26105) issued by the Utah Department of Health and Human Services. The document establishes daily service rates for residential treatment programs serving persons with serious emotional, behavioral, or substance-related disorders. The services are categorized by treatment level and type, including moderate and high-level youth with problematic sexual behaviors, combined mid-level and high mental and behavioral health services, and moderate to high-level substance-dependent services. Each service category includes a primary service code with corresponding daily rates and an absence code with slightly reduced rates.

The established daily rates range from $247 to $424, with moderate-level services priced at $257 per day, high-level youth services at $300 per day, combined mental and behavioral health services at $300 per day for mid-level and $424 per day for high-level services, and substance-dependent services at $300 per day.
