On March 18, the Division of Licensing and Certification (DLC) sent notice that Section 28 providers are required to obtain a mental health license in order to provide Section 28 services due to the recently adopted CMR 10-144 Chapter 123, Behavioral Health Organizations Licensing Rule. The notice included an application filing deadline of May 11, 2024, for providers who are not currently licensed as mental health agencies.

DLC is extending the application filing deadline for the currently unlicensed providers, to an unspecified date, while the licensing requirement is discussed internally amongst Department offices. The Department is also waiting for guidance on how the licensing requirement will impact schools. Impacted providers will receive additional information regarding timelines and requirements in the coming weeks. 

In the meantime, providers intending to enroll with MaineCare to deliver Section 28 services can continue to enroll under the current requirements.

Providers with an existing mental health agency license must ensure that the existing license includes the community support module and the rehabilitative and community support service by May 11, 2024.

Questions should be directed to Jennifer.Lynn.Gary at maine.gov<mailto:Jennifer.Lynn.Gary at maine.gov> who can provide technical assistance regarding the licensing rule requirements.

For MaineCare questions, please contact Pamela Grotton at pamela.grotton at maine.gov<mailto:pamela.grotton at maine.gov>.
