Practice Name: Cayuga County Community Mental Health Center

Services Provided: OMH-designated Specialty Mental Health Care Management programs, administered by Specialty Mental Health Care Management Agencies (SMH CMAs), provide services to the Health Home Plus (HH+) population. HH+ is an intensive level of Health Home Care Management provided to defined high-need adult populations with serious mental illness who are enrolled in a Health Home (HH) serving adults. To ensure the intensive needs of these individuals are met, SMH CMs must assure HH+ individuals receive a level of service consistent with the requirements outlined in the Health Home Plus for High-Need Individuals with Serious Mental Illness Program Guidance. The differential monthly rate for HH+ is higher compared to the Health Home High Risk/Need Care Management and Health Home Care Management rates, and is intended to appropriately reimburse for the intense and consistent support needed for this population.
