Care management platform supports Alabama Department of Mental Health
The Alabama Department of Mental Health (ADMH) served close to 100,000 adults statewide in fiscal year 2022, according to the department’s latest annual report. More than a quarter of those individuals experience a substance use disorder (SUD).
SUD is seen in every corner of the country and state health and human services agencies are working diligently to mitigate the effects of this epidemic on their communities. ADMH, for example, is actively engaged in the Alabama Overdose and Addiction Council whose primary goal is to reduce overdose deaths in the state. The group distributed 14,720 Narcan kits – used for overdose reversal – in 2022.
FEI Systems has been providing behavioral health care management systems for health and human services agencies managing SUD treatment and prevention programs since 2004. Our comprehensive platform assists with vital grant management services and serves as a single source of truth for behavioral health programs for agencies and their partners. One of our latest implementations of our behavioral health care management solution will go live this spring – the State of Alabama Substance Abuse Information System (SAIS).
We contracted with the Alabama Department of Mental Health (ADMH) in 2020 and have since worked closely with them to tailor our care management solution to best suit their needs. For example, we’ve included a key feature identified by Alabama providers in our implementation – the ability to upload treatment documentation directly to our platform and eliminate a need for duplicate data entry in our system and provider-specific electronic health records solutions. Our care management solution will also support block grant reporting for ADMH.
Medicaid is a large payer of SUD treatment in Alabama, but our system will support all payers and providers for SUD. It was our goal, primarily to consolidate care management functions into an easy-to-use platform to make managing treatment and federal grant reporting more efficient.
We look forward to building on our relationship with the ADMH as their behavioral health program needs evolve.
