All services shall be delivered in accordance with federal and state laws, rules, regulations, and any other notices or directives issued by the Bureau. These services shall be delivered by practitioners operating within the scope of their license as required by the respective Louisiana Practice Acts.
 

Designated Service Area

A provider may only serve members who reside in the provider’s designated geographic service area. Without exception, all services shall be prior authorized. A duplicated service or a service provided without prior authorization will not be reimbursed. Refer to the Service Access and Authorization page of this website for more information regarding prior authorization, service rates and designated geographic service areas. (click here).
 

Member Participation

If a member is unable or not willing to attend a scheduled appointment, a reasonable effort determined by clinical judgment shall be made by the provider to conduct follow-up and outreach services. This may include scheduling the appointment in the evening or on a weekend, at the member’s home or other community location. It is a clinical decision when a reasonable effort has been made. Documentation of all attempts to contact the member, written as a Service Log marked “For File Only” should be made in the member’s record.

 

If a member is discharged, a referral must be made to available community resources and documented in the MHRSIS software system. If phone contact with the member/family is not possible, the referral information is to be mailed to the member/family.

 

Family / Natural Support Involvement

There shall be family and/or legal guardian involvement throughout the planning and delivery of services for children and adolescents. The agency or individual who has the decision-making (legal) authority for children and adolescents in state custody must request and approve the provision of services to the member. The case manager or person legally authorized to consent to medical care must be involved throughout the planning and delivery of all services and such involvement must be documented in the member’s record which is maintained by the provider.
