As one of the six Medicaid Funded Children┐s Health and Behavioral Health Services, CI services are mobile services provided to children/youth under age 21 who are identified as experiencing acute psychological/emotional change which results in a marked increase in personal distress and which exceeds the abilities and resources involved to resolve it effectively. CI is a face-to-face intervention that can occur in a variety of settings. CI is provided 24/7/365 and respond within 1 hour of the completion of the initial call to the crisis provider and upon determination that an in-person contact is required. Services are provided through a multi-disciplinary team to enhance engagement and meet the unique needs of the child/youth and family. The team must be comprised of at least two professionals and one of these two must be a licensed behavioral health professional with crisis intervention service delivery experience. Please reference the Medicaid State Plan Provider Manual for Children┐s BH Early and Periodic Screening and Diagnostic Testing (EPSDT) Services for specific service components and staffing requirements.
