Oklahoma Built Its Public System on CCBHCs, With Outcomes Built In

  • The Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (ODMHSAS) says certified community behavioural health clinics are replacing the old community mental health centre model across the state. Each CCBHC is paid a cost-based monthly rate under a prospective payment system, and is expected to provide quality-driven services as shown through data and outcome reports generated by ODMHSAS or its contractors. ODMHSAS also contrasts the two models directly: CCBHCs carry additional standardized measures across providers and nationally.

    The state's CCBHC rules, in Oklahoma Administrative Code Title 450, Chapter 17 (unofficial copy effective 11 July 2026), put that into practice. New consumers get a preliminary screen at first contact using standardized and validated screening and assessment tools. Clinics submit data electronically to an information system that serves as a consumer registry, care management device and outcomes measurement tool, and keep an annual performance improvement plan with outcome measures required by CMS and the state.

    The rules name no single scale, which leaves the choice to the clinic. HiBoop gives you validated, scored scales for that first screen and for repeat measurement: the PHQ-9, GAD-7, C-SSRS Screener, ASSIST and others, each charted over time with CSV and PDF exports. It does not submit data to the ODMHSAS information system on your behalf.

  • Standardized Screening at First Contact

    Required of CCBHCs under OAC 450:17-5-178, with urgent needs evaluated within one business day

  • An Outcomes Measurement System

    Clinics submit data to an approved information system used for registry, care management and outcome monitoring

  • Outcome Measures in the Quality Plan

    Measures required by CMS and the state, and optionally SAMHSA National Outcomes Measures, NCQA and HEDIS

What HiBoop Does for Oklahoma Care Teams

  • Oklahoma's SoonerSelect plans cover behavioural health, its CCBHCs are paid under their own rules, and the state has joined the Counseling Compact. HiBoop does the scoring and charting; the clinical decision stays with your clinicians.

  • A Validated Screen at the First Contact

    Send the PHQ-9, GAD-7 or C-SSRS Screener by email or QR code when someone first reaches out, so the screening the rules ask for is done with a standardized tool and its score is on file before the evaluation.

  • Repeat Measures You Can Report

    Re-send the same scales during care and every score lands on one chart per client. The change over time informs your treatment reviews and your clinical judgement.

  • Exports for Your Quality Plan

    Export dated scores as CSV or PDF for your annual performance improvement plan, a quarterly record review or a health plan request.

  • Substance Use Screening

    When a screen shows unsafe alcohol or other substance use, the rules call for a brief intervention and a full assessment. The ASSIST and TAPS sit beside the PHQ-9 so both can be asked in the same visit.

  • Children and Teens

    The PHQ-A, SCARED and CRAFFT-2.1 cover adolescent depression, child anxiety and youth substance use for clinics and pediatric practices.

  • Clinics in Rural Counties

    Clients answer on their own phone between visits, which helps in rural counties far from a clinic. Team and Network plans bring every site into one account with role-based access.

Research from Oklahoma

  • CCBHCs and emergency visits

    A federal evaluation using 2015 to 2019 Medicaid claims found that Oklahoma clients of CCBHCs had an 11% reduction in behavioural health emergency department visits compared with clients of other behavioural health clinics in the state.

    Brown et al., Psychiatric Services, 2023 PMID 36916061

  • GAD-7 as a trial outcome

    In a randomized trial in Tulsa, 102 adults with generalized anxiety disorder were allocated to 10 sessions of exposure therapy or behavioural activation; GAD-7 scores fell by similar amounts in both arms and the gains held at six-month follow-up.

    Berg et al., Journal of Mood and Anxiety Disorders, 2023 PMID 38384390

  • Psychiatric consultation for primary care

    By 30 April 2024, the Oklahoma Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health Access Program had enrolled 384 pediatric-serving providers in 37 of Oklahoma's 77 counties.

    Hartwell et al., Journal of Osteopathic Medicine, 2025 PMID 40233260

  • Depression and anxiety screening in resettlement

    In a survey of 348 recently resettled Afghan refugees in Oklahoma City, 62.1% screened positive for depression and 20.1% for probable generalized anxiety disorder.

Where Measurement Fits in Oklahoma's System

  • HiBoop is independent of these agencies and does not connect to state or health plan systems. This is the landscape your clinic already reports into.

  • CCBHC Standards

    OAC Title 450:17

    Clinics must use standardized and validated screening and assessment tools at first contact, act immediately on emergencies, evaluate urgent needs within one business day, and offer a brief intervention when screening shows unsafe substance use. They also run a performance improvement program that gives priority to behavioural outcomes, client safety and person-centred care.

    ScreeningOutcomesQuality plan

  • Prospective Payment for CCBHCs

    SoonerCare

    ODMHSAS pays each CCBHC a cost-based monthly rate, triggered when the clinic delivers at least one covered service in the month, and updates rates each year by the Medicare Economic Index. Under the managed care guardrails in 56 O.S. 4002, plans must offer contracts to CCBHCs and community mental health centres, and any value-based payment used for CCBHCs instead of the prospective rate must equal it.

  • SoonerSelect

    Medicaid

    SoonerSelect members choose Aetna Better Health of Oklahoma, Humana Healthy Horizons of Oklahoma or Oklahoma Complete Health, and the plans cover behavioural health services. The statute requires plans to decide inpatient behavioural health prior authorizations within 24 hours and to pay 90% of clean claims within 14 days.

  • Licensing and the Counseling Compact

    State boards

    The State Board of Behavioral Health Licensure licenses LPCs, LMFTs and Licensed Behavioral Practitioners, and says Oklahoma is an active member of the Counseling Compact, issuing and accepting privileges to practise as of 1 October 2026. Social workers are licensed by the Board of Licensed Social Workers and psychologists by the State Board of Examiners of Psychologists.

Oklahoma Mental Health Records

  • HIPAA sets the federal floor. Oklahoma's Mental Health Law adds its own privilege and confidentiality rules for mental health and drug or alcohol treatment information in 43A O.S. 1-109. It certifies no software; the duties sit with your organization, and HiBoop supports them.

  • What Oklahoma law asks

    • Treat mental health and drug or alcohol treatment information, and communications with a treating professional, as privileged and confidential, including the fact that a person is receiving services
    • Limit access to people actively engaged in the consumer's treatment or related administrative work, and to the minimum amount of information they need for their function
    • Disclose only with a valid authorization or court order; a subpoena alone is not enough, and a written release needs the consumer's dated signature, an expiry date or event and a statement of the right to revoke
    • Keep HIPAA's safeguards and breach notification duties, with a business associate agreement for each vendor that handles protected health information

  • What HiBoop provides

    • Role-based access, so each staff member sees only the clients and data their role needs
    • A log of each view and export of client data, so access can be reviewed
    • A business associate agreement for HIPAA covered entities
    • SOC 2 Type II certification and US hosting in Google Cloud, set out on our trust page

  • Need vendor security details for your clinic?

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Does Oklahoma require a particular screening tool?

    Not by name. Oklahoma's CCBHC rules require standardized and validated screening and assessment tools at first contact and outcome measures in each clinic's performance improvement plan, but leave the choice of scale to the clinic. We found no Oklahoma rule naming the PHQ-9 or another scale, so check your contract with ODMHSAS or your SoonerSelect plan.

  • Will HiBoop send our data to ODMHSAS?

    No. The rules ask CCBHCs to submit data to an approved state information system; HiBoop does not connect to it. HiBoop sends and scores the scales, keeps each client's dated history and exports it as CSV or PDF for your own reporting.

  • Can counsellors from other states see Oklahoma clients through HiBoop?

    HiBoop does not change licensing rules. The State Board of Behavioral Health Licensure says Oklahoma is an active Counseling Compact member and has been issuing and accepting privileges to practise since 1 October 2026; check the board's guidance for your situation.

  • Is HiBoop HIPAA compliant for Oklahoma practices?

    Yes. HiBoop is HIPAA compliant and signs a business associate agreement with covered entities. Oklahoma's 43A O.S. 1-109 also limits access to people involved in a consumer's treatment and to the minimum necessary information; HiBoop's role-based access and access log help you apply that inside the platform.
