Summary - CMS recently launched the Value in Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) Treatment program, a new value-based demonstration focused on increasing access and outcomes for OUD treatment services to eligible Medicare beneficiaries through provision of payments to support patient-centered OUD treatment services and performance-based incentives.
This opportunity is open to a wide variety of providers, including Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics, community mental health centers, federally qualified health centers, opioid treatment programs, and more. This webinar will review components of the program and key considerations for behavioral health providers exploring this opportunity. More importantly, we will explore critical practices for behavioral health providers in optimizing their Medicare services and billing and how to set themselves up for future opportunities.
Note: This content in this webinar is solely the responsibility of the presenters and has not been funded by or reflect the views of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Any questions related to the funding opportunity itself will need to be directed to CMS.
Best,
