Last week, the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) released
a new
Behavioral Health Information Notice (BHIN) related to data
and reporting guidelines for implementing the Community
Assistance, Recovery, and Empowerment (CARE) Act. The BHIN
provides guidance to counties on the data reporting requirements
to monitor the performance of the CARE Act model using standards
set forth in the
CARE Act Data Dictionary. Part 1 of a two-part training
series on CARE Act data collection and reporting can be found
here. Additional resources and materials will continue to be
made available on the CARE Act
Resource Center webpage as they are released.
