  • Emergency Behavioral Health Services
    ALERT #24 ___________________ October 5, 2007 EMERGENCY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES PROGRAMS AND HOSPITAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS FOR MBHP MEMBERS AND UNINSURED CONSUMERS The following information should be communicated immediately to other appropriate staff in your organization. The Massachusetts Behavioral Health Partnership (MBHP) is the company that manages behavioral health (mental health and substance abuse) services for MassHealth’s Primary Care Clinician (PCC) Plan Members*. Additionally, MBHP is contracted with the Department of Mental Health to manage most of the Emergency Services Programs (ESPs) across the Commonwealth. In that role, MBHP is issuing this Alert to hospital Emergency Departments (EDs), MBHP network providers, and other interested stakeholders in order to provide clarification and guidance relative to the management of behavioral health emergencies in the ED setting. More specifically, this Alert delineates the roles and responsibilities of the Emergency Services Programs (ESPs) and describes an individual’s progression through this system, with a goal of expediting his or her movement through the hospital ED and into acute behavioral health services, as medically necessary. ESPs function as a “safety net” for all citizens of the Commonwealth regardless of age, payer, or ability to pay. It is important to note that the policies and procedures in this Alert applies to those populations for whom the ESPs are contracted with MBHP to serve, which includes MBHP members, MassHealth (non-MCO enrolled) Members, uninsured consumers, and DMH consumers. However, it is also important to note that MassHealth also requires the four Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) contracted with MassHealth to utilize the ESP system for emergency behavioral health services for MassHealth MCO enrolled Members.

  • Gazette 1905 - 1909
    Index: Middleboro Gazette 1905 - 1909 Introduction The Middleboro Gazette Index, 1905 - 1909 is a guide to the information contained within the Middleboro Gazette during the period January 1905 through December 1909. The information is as it appears in the newspaper and no attempt has been made to verify that the information given in the newspaper is accurate. The focus of the index is on the communities of Middleboro and Lakeville, Massachusetts. News from outside these geographic areas is included only if there is a direct link to these towns, i.e., Phineas T. Barnum and the Little People. Special notations are used within the index to designate editorials (e), letters (l), tables (t), photographs (p) and illustrations (i). Authors of editorials or letters are cited either within the headline or in parentheses immediately following either (e) or (l). The often informal nature of reporting presents special challenges to researchers. Additional information about specific businesses, town departments or other concerns can be located under general headines, i.e., Railroads, Streets, etc. Names are a particular challenge in a compilation of this kind. Multiple spellings, misspellings and incomplete names are just a few of the hurdles that must be overcome in order to glean every bit of information contained within the pages of the Gazette. For example, Mr. Elnathan W. Wilbur may be cited as any or all of the following: Wilbur, Elnathan W. Wilbur, Elnathan Wilbur, E.W. Wilbur, E. Wilbur (Mr) Wilbur (Captain) Mr. Wilbur’s last name may also be spelled, Wilbor, Wilber, Wilbour or Wilbur. In addition married women were also frequently cited as Mrs.

A broader definition of the disabled,one which includes the disadvantaged, is gaining acceptance, resulting in the need for expanded rehabilitation programs. This study provides the necessary guidelines for that expansion. Principal recommendations among the 200 made by the Commission include: (1) administrative reorganization at both state and community level, (2) increased services on a regional level through cooperation of qualified agencies, (3) improved placement efforts, including sheltered employment, (4) extension of the architectural barriers board to cover all buildings open to the public, (5) expanded services for the public offender, (6) adjustment to technological change, (7) strengthened research units, and (8) increased male recruitment and training of personnel.
