Chapter 182-561 WAC is a new chapter to establish the Community Behavioral Support Services (CBHS) benefit.
The CBHS benefit assists eligible clients with obtaining the skills necessary to reside successfully in home and community-based
settings. The chapter includes the eligibility criteria for clients; Apple Health rules requiring medical necessity do not
apply to this benefit. The chapter also includes CBHS provider requirements, eligible diagnoses, covered services, and the
appeal process. Additionally, the agency is amending WAC 182-501-0065 to include CBHS as a service category.
