Nevada Made Certified Community Clinics Permanent

  • Certified community behavioural health clinics (CCBHCs) began under a federal Medicaid demonstration in 2017, when 67 clinics opened in eight states and were paid through a prospective payment system for nine required services. According to SAMHSA, Nevada moved its CCBHC program out of that demonstration in 2023 and made it a permanent part of its state Medicaid program.

    The federal model these clinics follow sets out how measurement fits into care. SAMHSA's 2023 certification criteria say a CCBHC uses standardized, validated and developmentally appropriate screening and assessment tools, include required quality measures and a quality improvement plan, and encourage evidence-based strategies such as measurement-based care, defined as the systematic use of patient-reported information to inform clinical care and individualize ongoing treatment plans.

    Nevada's regional behavioural health policy boards also review data collection and reporting standards for behavioural health information in their regions. For a clinic, the practical step is the same: give validated scales at intake and through treatment, and keep the results where clinicians and quality staff can use them. HiBoop sends and scores the PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5 and other scales and charts each client's change. It does not report to the state or to a payer.

How HiBoop Supports Nevada Clinics

  • Nevada runs public behavioural health through state clinics, community providers and regional policy boards. HiBoop takes care of the scales so your clinicians can concentrate on the person in front of them.

  • Screening Ready at the First Visit

    Clients complete the PHQ-9, GAD-7 or C-SSRS Screener before they arrive, and your team sees the scored result as the visit begins.

  • Patient-Reported Information Over Time

    Repeat scales at regular points and every result lands on the client's chart, so treatment plans can be adjusted with the person. The scores inform the clinician's judgement rather than replace it.

  • Material for Quality Improvement

    Export score histories as CSV or PDF for your quality plan, a chart review or a payer request. You can export the whole account at any time.

  • Trauma-Informed Measurement

    The PCL-5 and PC-PTSD-5 sit next to depression and anxiety scales, for clinics where trauma is a common thread in the caseload.

  • Clinics With Several Sites

    Team and Network plans bring every clinician into one account, with role-based access so staff see only the clients they serve.

  • Developmentally Appropriate Scales

    For children and adolescents, HiBoop offers the PHQ-A, the SCARED and the CRAFFT-2.1.

  • PHQ-9 and PCL-5 after a mass casualty event

    Among 50 healthcare workers who cared for victims of the 2017 Las Vegas Route 91 Harvest Festival shooting, surveyed in 2022-2023 with the PHQ-9, BDI-II and PCL-5, work-related stress was significantly associated with symptoms of depression and PTSD.

  • Postpartum anxiety and depression

    In a survey of 326 mothers of children up to 23 months old in Clark County, postpartum depressive symptoms were associated with lower odds of exclusive breastfeeding (adjusted odds ratio 0.13).

  • Adolescent mental health screening data

    In Nevada's 2017 Youth Risk Behavior Survey across 98 high schools, among 3,427 physically active students, those who reported a sports concussion in the past year had higher odds of depressive symptoms, self-harm and attempted suicide.

Nevada's Behavioural Health System

  • HiBoop is independent of the agencies and boards described here and does not connect to state systems. This is the landscape your clinic works in.

  • CCBHCs in Nevada Medicaid

    Since 2023

    The Section 223 CCBHC Medicaid demonstration started in 2017, with clinics certified against federal criteria and paid a prospective payment rate for nine required services. SAMHSA reports that Nevada moved its CCBHC program out of the demonstration in 2023 and made it a permanent part of its Medicaid program.

  • 2023 CCBHC Certification Criteria

    SAMHSA

    The criteria cover staffing, access, coordination with other providers, services, quality reporting and governance. They call for standardized, validated and developmentally appropriate screening tools that are culturally and linguistically appropriate, require quality measures and a quality improvement plan, and encourage measurement-based care. Most CCBHCs had to comply by July 1, 2024.

  • Regional Behavioral Health Policy Boards

    Five regions

    Policy boards for the Clark, Washoe, Northern, Rural and Southern regions advise the Division of Public and Behavioral Health and the Commission on Behavioral Health, review data collection and reporting standards for behavioural health information, and report their region's priorities and needs. Each board is supported by a regional coordinator funded through federal block grants.

Care Teams in Nevada's Five Behavioural Health Regions

  • HiBoop runs in a browser, so a Las Vegas clinic and a frontier-county provider use the same check-ins. The regions below are those of Nevada's regional behavioural health policy boards.

  • Clark Region

    Since the regions were redrawn in 2019, the southern half of Nye County has belonged to the Clark region, whose regional coordinator is based in Clark County's Office of Clinical and Community Services.

  • Washoe Region

    Washoe County, around Reno, borders California and Oregon and is the state's second most populous area.

  • Northern Region

    Carson City and Churchill, Douglas, Lyon and Storey counties cover about 8,000 square miles of northwestern Nevada, with hubs such as Minden, Fallon and Fernley.

  • Rural Region

    Elko, Eureka, Humboldt, Lander, Pershing and White Pine counties form a northeastern region larger than Mississippi, where email check-ins save long drives.

  • Southern Region

    Mineral, Lincoln, Esmeralda and northern Nye counties stretch across about 28,000 square miles of southern rural Nevada.

Measurement-based care

…starts with what we measure, and how long.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Does Nevada require measurement-based care?

    Not for every practice, as far as we know. CCBHCs work under certification criteria that require standardized, validated screening tools and quality measures and encourage measurement-based care, and Nevada's regional policy boards review behavioural health data and reporting standards. Your Medicaid plan, grant or certification may set specific measures, so check those.

  • Can HiBoop help a CCBHC meet its screening criteria?

    HiBoop provides standardized, validated scales such as the PHQ-9, GAD-7, C-SSRS Screener, PCL-5 and youth scales, scored on submission, which a CCBHC can use within its own screening and assessment process. Meeting the criteria depends on your clinic's whole program, which your team and the state assess.

  • Will HiBoop send our data to the state or to Nevada Medicaid?

    No. HiBoop has no connection to state or Medicaid systems. It sends and scores scales, charts each client's results and exports them as CSV or PDF, so your team can prepare what its reports require.

  • Is HiBoop HIPAA compliant for Nevada clinics?

    Yes. HiBoop is HIPAA compliant and provides a business associate agreement to covered entities. Nevada also has its own health information laws, so confirm with your counsel how they apply to your organization.
