About this Program
Tackling adolescent behavioral health in Arizona and West Virginia means increasing access to services and addressing challenges in behavioral health for adolescents and youth crisis support. Solutions must meet the behavioral health needs and increase access to services for adolescents ages 10 to 21. Through this initiative, the Medicaid programs also hope to enhance adolescent crisis prevention and response.
Insights gathered through the discovery process in Arizona and West Virginia, which informed the Areas of Focus, can be found on the MIC website.
This RFI has two (2) areas of focus for vendors to address in their response to the behavioral health of adolescent Medicaid members; these are not mutually exclusive.
1. Navigating and Coordinating Care, Resources, and Services for Adolescents and Families
2. Alternative Care Models: Early Intervention, Crisis Response, and Ongoing Follow-up Services
Medicaid Innovation Collaborative (MIC) is an innovation program to advance health equity in Medicaid. Digital health solutions that improve access and quality of care, as well as address social and environmental needs, are underutilized yet powerful potential solutions to transform the health and wellbeing of the most vulnerable and diverse patient populations in the United States. Through programming, technical assistance, and other resources, MIC enables state Medicaid programs, their managed care plans, and other key stakeholders to more effectively identify and implement such solutions. Structured as a cohort program, states share learnings and collaborate with their peers on a specific health equity challenge.
