Recently, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
(CMS) released a Report to Congress entitled: “Innovative State
Initiatives and Strategies for Providing Housing-Related Services and
Supports under a State Medicaid Program to Individuals with Substance Use
Disorder who are Experiencing or at Risk of Experiencing Homelessness” as
required by section 1017(a) of the SUPPORT Act.
This report shows how five selected states (Arizona,
California, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington) and other
state and local programs tested and implemented a
variety of approaches to address housing stability needs
and improve treatment outcomes.
These initiatives and strategies primarily focused on:
- Providing
housing-related supports that facilitate access to community
resources;
- Sharing
data across systems to identify and target those most in need for
those resources; and
- Partnership
building across state and local health and housing systems and providers.
