Rule 24-2-54.9 - Program Requirement Two (2): Availability and Accessibility of Services - No Refusal of Services due to Inability to PayA. The CCBHC ensures: (1) no persons are denied behavioral health care services, including but not limited to crisis management services, because of a person's inability to pay for such services and(2) any fees or payments required by the clinic for such services will be reduced or waived to enable the clinic to fulfill the assurance, as described in this chapter.B. The CCBHC has a published sliding fee discount schedule(s) that includes all services the CCBHC offers pursuant to these criteria. Such fee schedules will be included on the CCBHC website, posted in the CCBHC waiting room and readily accessible to people receiving services and families. The sliding fee discount schedule is communicated in languages/formats appropriate for people seeking services who have LEP, literacy barriers, or disabilities.C. The fee schedules, to the extent relevant, conform to state statutory or administrative requirements or to federal statutory or administrative requirements that may be applicable to existing clinics; absent applicable state or federal requirements, the schedule is based on locally prevailing rates or charges and includes reasonable costs of operation.D. The CCBHC has written policies and procedures describing eligibility for and implementation of the sliding fee discount schedule. Those policies are applied equally to all people seeking services.
