CRMs are now reimburseable through Medicaid!

• Oregon Health Authority has issued a memo stating MHACBO CRMs can enroll as Oregon Medicaid Providers and bill under licensed/certified substance use disorder programs enrolled with Oregon Medicaid. - Click here to download memo
• What does this mean? Historically, with addiction peers, only Peer Support Specialists (PSS) through OHA could enroll as Oregon Medicaid Providers.  Now, MHACBO CRMs can also enroll!
• What will change?  MHACBO is no longer transmitting new or renewing CRMs to the Oregon Health Authority to be converted to Peer Support Specialists and placed on the Traditional Healthcare Worker registry. 
• What should you do?  If you need to obtain, or renew, your Oregon Health Authority PSS, you will need to do so directly with OHA
