Written by Practice Support Team | Jul 12, 2023 12:00:00 PM

The Department of Health and Human Services is delaying implementation of the Behavioral Health and Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities Tailored Plans.  Tailored Plan launch was scheduled for October 1, 2023, but will now go forward at a date still to be determined.

The Department and the LME/MCOs remain committed to the implementation of the Tailored Plans, ensuring minimal disruption for the roughly 160,000 eligible beneficiaries set to be in the Tailored Plans.  Tailored Plans will serve people with complex behavioral health conditions, intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI).  Their behavioral and physical health needs are often significant, requiring ongoing care from multiple providers.
