The purpose of this hearing is to receive comments on proposed changes to Title 471, Chapter 32 of the Nebraska Administrative Code (NAC) – Children’s Mental Health and Substance Use Treatment Services. These regulations govern child mental health and substance use services provided by Medicaid. The proposed changes will add the following services to the regulations: applied behavioral analysis, peer support services multisystemic family therapy, and functional family therapy. The proposed changes remove duplicate statutory and inconsistent language in the regulations, restructure the regulatory chapter, and ensure compliance with the State Plan, other NAC chapters, federal law, and best practices.
