Section 23, Developmental and Behavioral Clinic Services: Child Abuse Evaluations, Comment Summary and Final Draft Rate

May 31, 2024

On May 13, 2024, the Office of MaineCare Services initiated a rate determination process* for Section 23, Child Abuse Evaluations. We held a virtual public forum on May 17, 2024, to present the draft rate model to interested parties and allowed for public comment.  Interested parties were able to submit written comments through May 21, 2024. 

The final draft rate and a summary of all comments are available on the MaineCare Rate System Reform webpage. The summary of comments include the Department’s responses, with an explanation of whether and how feedback was incorporated into the final draft rates. MaineCare reviewed and took into consideration all public input received, and we thank all those who contributed.

You may contact Dwayne Parsons, MaineCare’s Acting Manager of Rate Setting and Reform, with any questions on this process.
