CMS Announces State Recipients for the Innovation in Behavioral Health (IBH) Model

Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that state Medicaid agencies in *Michigan, New York, Oklahoma, and South Carolina* have been selected to take part in the Innovation in Behavioral Health (IBH) Model [ https://www.cms.gov/priorities/innovation/innovation-models/innovation-behavioral-health-ibh-model ].

Under the IBH Model, CMS, participating states, and community-based behavioral health providers will collaborate to improve the overall quality of care and outcomes for adults enrolled in Medicaid and Medicare with moderate to severe mental health conditions and/or substance use disorders.

The IBH Model supports specialty behavioral health practices in the delivery of integrated care in outpatient settings by prioritizing close collaboration with primary care and other physical health providers with a goal to address all aspects of a patient’s care.

The IBH Model will start on January 1, 2025, and run for 8 years. Oklahoma is implementing the IBH model statewide, and Michigan, New York, and South Carolina are implementing the model in designated sub-state geographic service areas.

Additional information about the IBH Model can be found on the model webpage, including:
