IBHS Regionalization Family Letter July 7, 2020 Dear Family Member, You are receiving this letter because your child has been receiving Behavioral Health Rehabilitative Services (BHRS) or School Therapeutic Services (STS) in school, in your home, and/or in the community. We are excited to inform you about some improvements to these services. We sent you a letter in March 2020 telling you that Pennsylvania’s Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (OMHSAS) released new rules for a new service called Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS). IBHS will replace BHRS and STS this year. Community Behavioral Health (CBH)—the organization that pays for Medicaid behavioral health (mental health and substance use) services in Philadelphia—has worked closely with parents and families, the School District of Philadelphia (SDP), and others to figure out how to best support you and your child as these services change to IBHS. CBH is moving to make preferred IBHS providers for different parts of the city. These providers will be grouped by neighborhoods and will make sure your child can get timely and high-quality treatment. However, family choice will remain as a priority. IBHS providers will be assigned to specific neighborhoods so that one treatment provider can give services to children and their families in all places (home, school, and community). Specifically, providers will be matched to the ZIP code of where your child goes to school. The providers were selected based on who will be able to serve children and families in the best possible way. Some improvements you will see include: Consistency in service Stronger family engagement Stronger partnership between treatment providers and the SDP A single provider for your neighborhood and local schools who can serve you in your home if needed/wanted Easier access to services since IBHS will be available in all schools in the SDP (K–12) Individual and group services, according to each child’s needs Better training and supervision of those providing treatment to your child More use of evidence-based treatments Trauma-focused groups in all School District schools Ability to talk to peers who work for your new provider and have experience as parents of children who have used behavioral health services Case management to help with life’s daily challenges A list of schools is also included in this letter, along with the name and contact information of the provider matched with your area. All public schools and charter schools are included. If your child attends a private or parochial school, or a school outside of Philadelphia County, you will still have access to the preferred provider for that ZIP code. In the coming weeks, you should receive information about the assigned provider for your area and how services will be transferred to your new provider. All providers will offer a link to their website so you can see all their services and contact information. Your current behavioral health provider will support you until your child changes to the newly assigned provider. If you have concerns about your newly assigned provider, please contact CBH Member Services at 1-888-545-2600 (TTY-1-888-436-7482) by Friday, August 14, 2020. You can also contact Member Services with other questions or concerns about how to access treatment for your child. CBH wants to make sure that your child’s services are not interrupted during this change. Sincerely, Dr. Tamra Williams, Deputy Chief Clinical Officer, Children’s Services 7 de julio de 2020 Estimado miembro de la familia: Nos dirigimos a usted porque su hijo ha estado recibiendo los Servicios de rehabilitación de salud del comportamiento (Behavioral Health Rehabilitative Services, BHRS) o los Servicios terapéuticos escolares (School Therapeutic Services, STS) en la escuela, en su casa o en la comunidad. Nos complace informarle algunas mejoras implementadas en estos servicios. En marzo de 2020, le enviamos una carta en la que le informamos que OMHSAS, Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (la Oficina de Servicios de Salud Mental y Abuso de Sustancias) de Pennsylvania publicó nuevas normas para un nuevo servicio denominado IBHS, Intensive Behavioral Health Services (Servicios intensivos para la salud del comportamiento). Este año los IBHS reemplazarán a los BHRS y STS. La Oficina de CBH, Community Behavioral Health (Salud del Comportamiento para la Comunidad), organismo encargado de pagar los servicios de salud del comportamiento (salud mental y abuso de sustancias) de Medicaid en Philadelphia, ha trabajado en estrecha colaboración con los padres y las familias, con the School District of Philadelphia (el Distrito Escolar de Philadelphia) y con otras entidades a fin de procurar brindarle la mejor asistencia posible a usted y a su hijo mientras se reemplazan estos servicios por los IBHS. CBH se está ocupando de conseguir proveedores preferidos de IBHS para diferentes partes de la ciudad. Estos proveedores se agruparán por vecindarios y se asegurarán de que su hijo pueda recibir un tratamiento oportuno y de alta calidad. Sin embargo, la preferencia de la familia seguirá siendo la prioridad. Se asignará un vecindario específico a cada proveedor de IBHS. De esta manera, el proveedor del tratamiento podrá brindar los servicios a los niños y sus familias en todos los lugares (casa, escuela y comunidad). En otras palabras, esta asignación se realizará en función del código postal de la escuela a la que su hijo asiste. La selección de los proveedores se realizó en función de los profesionales que pueden atender a los niños y a las familias de la mejor manera posible. Algunas de las mejoras que verá son las siguientes: Regularidad en los servicios Mayor participación familiar Mayor relación entre los proveedores de tratamiento y el SDP Un proveedor único para su vecindario y para las escuelas locales que podrá atenderlo en su casa, si fuese necesario o si así lo prefiere Mayor acceso a los servicios, ya que los IBHS estarán disponibles en todas las escuelas del SDP (K–12) Servicios individuales y grupales; esto dependerá de las necesidades de cada niño Mejor capacitación y supervisión de los profesionales que brindan tratamiento a su hijo Mayor uso de tratamientos basados en la evidencia Grupos enfocados en el trauma en todas las escuelas del Distrito Escolar Posibilidad de hablar con compañeros que trabajan para su nuevo proveedor y que tienen experiencia como padres de niños que han utilizado los servicios de salud del comportamiento Administración de casos para ayudar con los problemas cotidianos de la vida En esta carta, también se incluye una lista de las escuelas, junto con el nombre y la información de contacto del proveedor de su área. Se incluyen todas las escuelas públicas y autónomas. Si su hijo asiste a una escuela privada o parroquial, o una escuela fuera del condado de Filadelfia, seguirá teniendo acceso al proveedor elegido de ese código postal. En las próximas semanas, debería recibir la información sobre el proveedor asignado para su área y sobre cómo se transferirán los servicios a su nuevo proveedor. Todos los proveedores proporcionarán un enlace a su sitio web para que pueda ver todos sus servicios y la información de contacto. El proveedor de salud del comportamiento actual de su hijo seguirá prestando asistencia hasta que se realice el cambio al nuevo proveedor asignado. Si tiene dudas sobre el nuevo proveedor asignado, comuníquese con Servicios para los Miembros de CBH al 1-888-545-2600 (TTY-1-888-436-7482) antes del viernes 14 de augusto de 2020. También, puede comunicarse con Servicios para los Miembros en caso de que tenga preguntas o inquietudes sobre cómo acceder al tratamiento para su hijo. CBH quiere asegurarse de que no se interrumpan los servicios de su hijo durante este cambio. Atentamente, Dra.

    APPENDIX G: SCHOOL CLUSTERS Providers may use the updated grid, along with public and charter school enrollment numbers and prior average utilization of behavioral health services, to estimate number and types of staff needed to adequately meet the needs of children in their clusters of interest. School enrollment information can be found at the School District of Philadelphia website here. Based on prior year utilization of behavioral health services, providers may calculate 2-7% of the total enrollment as an estimate of the number of children participating in behavioral health treatment. Providers may apply the 2% to “Model” schools, 4% to “Reinforce” schools, and 7% to “Watch” and “Intervene” schools. Please note that prior utilization is not a guarantee of future utilization.

  • 31 High Schools Named a Pngas Guard-Friendly High School
    Pennsylvania National Guard Associations Building 9-109 Biddle Hall Fort Indiantown Gap Annville, PA 17003-5002 www.PNGAS.org For Immediate Release 31 HIGH SCHOOLS NAMED A PNGAS GUARD-FRIENDLY HIGH SCHOOL The Pennsylvania National Guard Associations (PNGAS) is a non-profit organization whose sole mission is supporting the men, women and veterans of the National Guard, their spouses, and families (Fort Indiantown Gap - Annville, PA) – December 21, 2020 –The Pennsylvania National Guard Associations (PNGAS) is pleased to announce 31 High Schools have earned the designation PNGAS Guard Friendly High School. The designation and standards were developed by the PNGAS Education Advisory Council to amplify high school best practices for recruiting, information- sharing, and group-formation in high schools for their support of the Pennsylvania National Guard. The PNGAS Education Action Council is chaired by Brigadier General George Schwartz (Ret.). Through his leadership, volunteers from some of the state’s leading colleges and universities voluntarily review applications, guidelines, best practices, and improvement criteria. For many years, the Education Assistance Program (“EAP”) has been the number #1 recruiting tool for the Pennsylvania National Guard. Since its inception, Pennsylvania has distributed more than $300 million through the EAP so Guard members can get college, university, and trade school degrees. The EAP provides a tuition benefit equivalent to the yearly tuition rate set by the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE) so that members of the Pennsylvania National Guard can attend one of 488 Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) approved schools. Presently, the EAP is an almost $32,000 tuition benefit for each Guard member.
