• ICD-10 Updates and FAQs

  The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services established a new set of standards for the electronic exchange of HIPAA transactions between providers and payers. Included in this new set of standards is support for ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision) codes, which provide a better definition of diagnoses and procedures. MVP will provide current news on ICD-10 information to help you move to ICD-10, and information on MVP’s implementation of ICD-10. Please check often for updates.

• Children and Family Treatment and Support Services

  As of January 1, 2019, children with non-Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Medicaid Managed Care (MMC) will have additional coverage so they can take advantage of additional behavioral health treatment and support services for their families.

  These services place strong emphasis on early identification and access to treatment. The intention is to prevent the onset or progression of behavioral health conditions and a need for long-term or more expensive services. Some of these services will allow the child to be treated in the home and other natural, community-based settings where children/youth and their families live. The program will be phased-in over the next 18 months, with the first three services being implemented on January 1, 2019.

  What are the first three services?

  The services that will be effective January 1 include:

  • Other Licensed Practitioner (OLP) – lets children get individual, group, or family therapy where they are most comfortable.
  • Psychosocial Rehabilitation (PSR) – helps children relearn skills to help them in the community.
  • Community Psychiatric Supports and Treatment (CPST) – helps children stay in their home and communicate better with family, friends, and others.

  How are these services being rendered?

  Beacon Health Options has a provider network that are rendering the services listed above. Beacon is also responsible for the administration of claims. MVP Health Care^® (MVP) will provide Care Management services.
