The Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OhioMHAS) is seeking proposals from qualified contractors to ready our staff for the changing terrain of behavioral health healthcare payor and reimbursement models. This includes, braiding, pooled, outcome and quality measurements and reporting, APMs, etc. The purpose is to equip our staff with the tools necessary to design, implement, operationalize, execute, and report on the effectiveness - and to advocate for alternative funding models for greatest efficiency and execution. Trainings and exercises will occur over the course of six to eight weeks, culminating in a mandatory final exercise bringing all the trainings together and facilitating OhioMHAS staff drafting a theoretical OhioMHAS business plan for Ohio’s community behavioral health system for the future five to ten years using an outline developed and provided by the selected vendor.
