PUBLIC NOTICE

Department of Health

Pursuant to 42 CFR Section 447.205, the Department of Health hereby gives public notice of the following:

The Department of Health proposes to amend the Title XIX (Medicaid) State Plan for non-institutional services with enacted statutory provisions. The following clarifications are proposed:

As previously noticed on March 26, 2014 and August 27, 2014, the Commissioner of Health, in consultation with the Commissioner of the Office of Mental Health, will update rates paid to clinics licensed under Article 28 of the Public Health Law who provide collaborative care services. The collaborative care clinical delivery model is an evidence-based service to improve detection of depression and provide treatment to such individuals in an integrated manner. Designated clinics will provide, at minimum, screening for depression, medical diagnosis of patients who screen positive, evidence-based depression care, ongoing tracking of patient progress, care management, and a designated psychiatric practitioner who will consult with the care manager and primary care physician. This provision will now be effective October 1, 2014.

The estimated annual net aggregate increase in gross Medicaid expenditures attributable to this initiative contained in the budget for state fiscal year 2014/2015 is $10 million dollars.
