  1. Enrollment Process in WSA
  1. Health Home Partners will review that client meets eligibility requirements, as identified in BHH handbook, discuss program and services with client, complete required forms and recommend enrollment through the WSA.  Provider will attach completed enrollment packet in PDF form including; 
  • MDHHS 5515 
  • BHH Consent with enrollment date
  • Care Plan
Please note that changes have been made to the BHH Enrollment Documents to account for the use of the Waiver Support Application.  Please use the revised documents, which can be found in the Knowledge Base section of the NMRE help desk at:  https://support.nmre.org/helpdesk/KB/View/31747441-behavioral-health-home-enrollment-documents

  1. NMRE will confirm that client has Medicaid or HMP, is not enrolled in another waivered program and has an address within the region. NMRE will review that all enrollment forms are complete and that clients meet clinical criteria to enroll in BHH. 
  2. NMRE will Approve, Send Back or Deny the request. When the enrollment is approved,  NMRE will create the authorization in RECON for the S0280 service.
  3. Once the enrollment is approved, the Health Home Partner will have access to beneficiary information such as Case Info/Demographics/Counts within the WSA.
