PROVIDER MANUAL
The CBH Provider Manual, revised in July of 2005, describes the procedures
developed by Community Behavioral Health under the HealthChoices initiative
to assure that all consumers of mental health and substance abuse services
receive the most appropriate treatment in the least restrictive environment
possible.
CBH is not only committed to helping people live in the community, but
also to help people live with the community. To that end, treatment
should be focused around the principles of recovery, resilience and
self-determination.
There was a typographical error in the first sentence on page 4.17 of
the Provider Manual. This error has been corrected. However, if you
have previously printed this page, please discard and replace your printed
copy with the corrected page.
The incorrect sentence read:
If CBH receives a claim or Adjustment Request Form more than 180 days
from the date of service for services not requiring an authorization,
or more than 90 days from the date of service for services requiring
an authorization, the claim or adjustment form will reject or will be
returned to provider due to late submission.
The correct sentence reads:
If CBH receives a claim or Adjustment Request Form more than 180 days from the date of service for services requiring an authorization, or more than 90 days from the date of service for services not requiring an authorization, the claim or adjustment form will reject or will be returned to provider due to late submission.
