Provider Resources
CBH contracts with nearly 200 Medicaid-enrolled and licensed service providers to deliver effective and medically necessary behavioral health services to our members in a culturally competent manner. CBH authorizes payment for a vast continuum of behavioral health services, including outpatient mental health, substance use disorder (SUD), inpatient psychiatric hospital, residential, and telehealth treatments, which are conducted in locations that members can easily access, such as the home, school, or other community settings. CBH works diligently with community partners and providers to maximize access to services while adhering to the Commonwealth’s Behavioral HealthChoices Program Standards.
Crisis Response Centers
In cases of emergency related to mental health or substance use-related crisis, Crisis Response Centers (CRCs) operate 24/7 and offer emergency evaluations to help determine the most appropriate level of care and services. CRCs are available to serve Philadelphia residents requiring emergency behavioral health services, providing needed care in a safe setting.
