Substance Use Disorder Treatment SR 19-04, 06/19 (MAM-A)

_____________________________________________________________

Participation in ASAM Level 1 outpatient substance use disorder services, including medication assisted treatment, and recovery supports, counts towards the community engagement requirement. Recipients must report the number of hours participated in these services up to 40 hours per month. Note that if the recipient is participating in more than 40 hours a month of outpatient substance abuse disorder treatment they may qualify for an exemption due to receiving more intensive treatment than ASAM Level 1 services. See MAM 230.07 Granite Advantage: Community Engagement Requirement Exemptions. Recipients can report substance use disorder treatment by submitting BFA Form 321, Reporting Monthly Participation in Community Engagement Activities.
