Summary
Kansas Medicaid (KMAP) extended treatment plan review intervals from 90 days to up to 180 days for Community Mental Health Centers (CMHCs) and Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs), effective retroactively to February 4, 2025. This change aligns with SAMHSA guidelines and does not apply to other behavioral health facility types or substance use disorder programs.
Action Required
By February 4, 2025 (retroactive): Billing teams at CMHCs and CCBHCs must update treatment plan review schedules to allow up to 180-day intervals instead of 90-day intervals. Update EMR templates and care coordination workflows to reflect new review timelines. Monitor KanCare MCO implementation status on the KMAP Open Claims Resolution Log as MCO system updates may vary from state policy date.
