INTERPRETIVE OR POLICY STATEMENT
SOCIAL AND HEALTH SERVICES
Subject: Chemical-using pregnant (CUP) women program.
Effective Date: November 1, 2002.
Document Description: MAA last published this document in 1993. Most of the material in this new publication adds current program practice that was omitted in the 1993 publication. The new publication now includes the process for extended stays, billing instructions, and information on Medicare and Healthy Options. Other things in the new publication worth noting are that MAA has discontinued Revenue Code 169 for extended stays, has added resource linkages, and has defined basic program services.
