The 2019 Oregon Legislature approved $6.6M in general funds to expand the existing continuum of care for children to include an intensive community-based alternative to residential treatment and inpatient hospitalization.
The IIBHT benefit will be available to Oregon Health Plan members not enrolled with a coordinated care organization (CCO) starting July 2020. CCOs will cover the IIBHT benefit starting Jan. 1, 2021.
The Oregon Administrative Rules for IIBHT are in 309-019-0167, 410-172-0650 and 410-172-0695.
