CYBHI Fee Schedule Application
The application is now open for local education agencies (LEAs) to join the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative (CYBHI) Fee Schedule Program
Apply by Friday, October 9, at 5:00 pm.
The CYBHI Fee Schedule Program helps schools and school-linked behavioral health providers access sustainable funding for services delivered on school campuses or through community-based partnerships (school-linked sites). State law now requires health insurance plans to reimburse schools for eligible behavioral health services provided to students.
How can LEAs join the Fee Schedule? Join a Cohort!
Applications to participate in a cohort are on a rolling basis (every six months). LEAs can join the CYBHI Fee Schedule Program through rolling six-month enrollment cohorts, offering ongoing opportunities to participate.
TK–12 LEAs interested in applying to the CYBHI Fee Schedule Program are encouraged to ensure key infrastructure is in place to maximize readiness for participation. Department of Health Care Services has implemented an operational readiness review process for all cohort applications. To support successful implementation, LEAs should be prepared to demonstrate capacity in the following areas:
- Service delivery infrastructure
- Data collection and documentation
- Billing infrastructure
- Medi-Cal enrollment
