CONTINUATION PAGE

98. In PWS 2.6.4.1, the requirement for general and specialty mental health staffing includes the ratio for PCMHI staff. But in PWS 4.12.3, it states that the PCMHI quality measure only applies for PCMHI in clinics that have over 5,000 uniques. Can the government please confirm if the PCMHI ratio/staff are not applicable if the clinic has over 5,000 uniques?

PCMHI implementation is required once total enrollment reaches 5,000.

The base period shows 3,700 PC enrollees, and 1,790 MH enrollees for a combined total of 5,470 enrollees. For the purposes of understanding if and when PCMHI implementation is required, please clarify if "total" enrollment is defined as:

1) total enrollment of PC enrollees only; or

2) total enrollment of both PC and MH, enrollees.

PC-MHI is now required for all CBOCs, regardless of number served at the site due to changes with the PACT21 metric.
