Download PDF
The Department of Medical Assistance Services is pleased to announce a new targeted case management service that is designed to provide service coordination and person-centered planning with members who have sustained a traumatic brain injury. In accordance with HB680, the 2022 Virginia General Assembly, DMAS is updating the State Plan for Medical Assistance to include a provision for the payment of Medicaid targeted case management. This new case management service will support members who have sustained a traumatic brain injury on or after the age of 18 and who meet the medical necessity criteria for the service. DMAS has worked extensively with relevant stakeholders to develop the relevant service definitions, administrative and program structures, and eligibility criteria defined this new provider manual supplement. Brain Injury Services Case Management is not part of a Medicaid waiver or specifically affiliated with any set of existing DMAS service systems. Please note that there are members receiving a wide variety of services who may be eligible to receive the Brain Injury Services Case management service. To access this service members or their representatives shall contact their Managed Care Organization noted at the end of this memorandum or the DMAS High Needs Supports team by using the contacts listed on the DMAS website HERE.
Please refer to the DMAS Brain Injury Services website HERE for more details on services including the service specific training dates to be scheduled during September of 2023.
