Title or Subject: Medicaid State Plan Amendments (SPA) 19-0003 and 19-0006 Substance Use Disorder Peer Support Services.

Effective Date: July 1, 2019.

Description: The health care authority (the agency) intends to submit medicaid SPAs 19-0003 and 19-0006 in order to add substance use disorder (SUD) peer support services to the medicaid state plan. The current medicaid state plan authorizes peer support services for individuals experiencing the effects of a mental health disorder, but does not allow for the same services under the SUD benefit. The proposed language includes a description of the new service and provider requirements. SPA 19-0003 amends the rehabilitative services section of the state plan and SPA 19-0006 amends the section describing primary care case management services under Section 1932(a) of the Social Security Act. These SPAs are being submitted at the direction of ESSB 6032, passed during the 2018 legislative session.

Because SUD peer support will be a new state plan service, SPAs 19-0003 and 19-0006 are expected to increase the annual aggregate expenditures/payments for SUD services. The expected increase will be $4,496,871 the first full year of service provision, with a projected five percent increase per year during the first three years. This amount may increase or decrease based on the final operating budget authorized by the governor and state legislature.

SPAs 19-0003 and 19-0006 are in the development process; therefore copies are not yet available for review. To request copies when they become available, you may contact the agency in your county listed in the table or the person named below. To submit comments, please contact the person named below (please note that all comments are subject to public review and disclosure, as are the names of those who comment).
