Coming Soon: Solutions That Work Webinar Series

“Value” is the latest buzzword in NYS’s transition to Medicaid managed care for delivery of behavioral health services. In a nutshell, as a behavioral health provider, anything you do that improves the lives of the people you serve and reduces the need for preventable and costly behavioral and/or medical intervention is considered “valuable.” The challenge for providers is to achieve these objectives consistently and cost-effectively.

We have gathered a group of innovative providers from across the state who have done just that, and we invite you to join them for 3 conversations on value solutions that work. MCTAC + is offering 3 “Solutions That Work” webinars focusing on proven implementation strategy in 3 essential solution orientations: Peer Services, Health Integration and Access and Engagement. We invite you to join us for a frank discussion with the leaders and innovators themselves.

These webinars are intended for behavioral health executives, managers, direct care staff and anyone interested in applying solutions for meeting the value challenge. Stay tuned for registration information!

Family-Driven Care means families are expert partners in the care of their children and should have a primary role in making decisions about the care their family receives.
