LCMHS CCBHC Implementation Project - Purpose: To convert LCMHS (CMHC) to a CCBHC utilizing evidence-based practices focusing on trauma-informed care and whole-person approaches for all patients in Labette County, KS. This will be accomplished by establishing the nine core deliverables of a CCBHC:

1) 24/7 crisis management and care;
2) Screening, assessment, diagnosis, and risk assessment;
3) Patient-centered treatment, planning, risk assessment;
4) Outpatient mental health and SUD services;
5) Outpatient clinical primary care screening and monitoring;
6) Targeted case management;
7) Psychiatric rehabilitation services;
8) Peer support, counselor services, and family support;
9) Intensive community-based mental health for armed forces/veterans/families.

Population: Labette Center for Mental Health Services (LCMHS), a certified CMHC and provider of behavioral health services for Labette County (pop. 19,912) and located in the town of Parsons, KS (pop. 11,237) in the southeast corner of the state. LCMHS provides services for approximately 2,100 patients per year, of which 242 have severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI) and 1,215 are SUD/SMI/SED/COD patients. Our agency serves a rural population with significant economic and health disparities. Labette County has significant disparities in education levels, poverty levels, and income levels compared with the state of Kansas.

Patients and community members in crisis in Labette County deserve the whole-person care advantages offered by a CCBHC. With 78% of LCMHS clients having family or personal income levels at or below $20,000 and eligible for Medicaid, and 850 Medicaid clients in 2021 - moving towards a CCBHC simply makes sense. Families, children, SUD/SED/SMI/COD patients require a safety-net without regard to ability to pay, and the CCBHC certification focusing on whole-person care from patient navigation through recovery support is a critical step in meeting these needs.

Number served: Total 5,000. Year 1 – 1,000. Year 2 – 1,000. Year 3 – 1,500. Year 4 – 1,500.

Primary project goals:
1) Increase population penetration for integrated healthcare services expansion and collaboration with the CCBHC care model;
2) Create advisory committee for meaningful participation in CCBHC governance;
3) Improve quality of culturally competent services and care coordination for veterans and family members of veterans;
4) Enhance and expand current CMHC service delivery system to meet CCBHC criteria. This includes staffing, training, care coordination, language accessibility, and use of EBPs;
5) Develop infrastructure to address the operational needs of a CCBHC, including electronic health record system, data collection and reporting, and performance improvement processes.
