Summary
Michigan is expanding Behavioral Health Home services to three additional counties and adding new staff roles (SOAR Navigator, Housing Specialist, Parent Support Partner) to help Medicaid beneficiaries with serious mental illness access housing and income support services.
Action Required
By October 1, 2025: Billing teams in Michigan should verify if their practice provides Behavioral Health Home services in Genesee, Sanilac, or St. Clair Counties. If so, review updated staffing ratios and confirm proper credentialing for new staff roles. No immediate billing system changes required as this primarily affects service delivery structure.
