Section 22-A3300. DC COMMUNITY SERVICE AGENCY CONSUMER TRANSITION VOUCHER

 

3300.1These rules establish the requirements, formula, and process for a Consumer Transition Voucher (“CTV”) payment to a Core Services Agency (“CSA”), Assertive Community Treatment ("ACT") Program or Community Based Intervention ("CBI") Program for each consumer transitioning from the D.C. Community Service Agency (“DCCSA”) as part of the Department of Mental Health’s plan to close the DCCSA.   The CTV is available only to consumers who were enrolled in DCCSA and are now transferring from the DCCSA to a new Department of Mental Health (“DMH”) certified provider.

 

3300.2The purpose of the CTV is to support transition services provided to consumers transferred from the DCCSA as part of the Department’s closure of the DCCSA. The CTV is intended to provide additional funds to the CSA, ACT Program, or CBI Program, whichever unit becomes the consumer’s new clinical home, to assist in the cost of additional staffing, training and service requirements for each new consumer during the transition period.

 

3300.3The CTV program does not create any rights except the right of the consumer’s new clinical home to bill DMH for CTV payment for transition services rendered and to receive the CTV payment in accordance with the requirements set forth herein.

3300.4Nothing in these rules shall be interpreted to mean that a CTV provided by DMH is an entitlement or benefit.
