MiniCourse 3B - 'Substance Abuse and Chemical Dependency Treatment - The Big Transition'
a.k.a., "The Big Transition in the AOD Field: Assessment of 'Need For Treatment' and 'Treatment Interventions' - How They've CHANGED!'
Traditional addiction services, and the criteria for obtaining those services - have you seen some disconcerting changes lately? Is your Substance Abuse and Chemical Dependency contractor wanting something different in the way of treatment for your clients? Like, less intensive services? Shorter stays? Fewer clients authorized for the treatment you think they need? Wondering how to survive these shifts?
This course addresses the 'nitty gritty' of major programmatic, therapeutic, and philosophical changes taking place within the traditional Alcohol and Other Drug (AOD) treatment culture, due to a new health care environment. Material applies to single AOD diagnosis and to Dual MH-AOD diagnoses.
The course offers a bird's eye view of how ASSESSMENT of the NEED for TREATMENT - and HOW we DELIVER treatment - have changed under Managed Care and other insurance plans . . . and how to constructively adapt when it's ethically possible.
We also provide an understanding of HOW the MCOs make those controversial treatment decisions for substance abusing and chemically dependent individuals during the CARE MANAGEMENT or Utilization Review (UR) process - and how to ASK for 'WHAT' from the MCO's care manager, to maximize your chances of getting what your clients need.

BYE BYE BLOCK GRANT . . . HOW TO SURVIVE? SA and CD programs have to 'eat' and 'pay the rent'. So how do you do that, when your dependable BLOCK GRANT or other State contract funds have 'GONE MANAGED CARE'? Course 3B also discusses 'HOW' to succeed in a new ADDICTION TREATMENT CULTURE. Like, how does a traditional Addiction Treatment Program begin to function like (or expand) a 'business'? It's about HOW TO SURVIVE while doing quality addiction treatment.
