Long-term services
 

It was brought to my attention that an intake my agency did for a MHSS client and was denied by the insurance company, went missing about 10 days ago. This is evidence that long term supports are an important part of mental health. Maybe, just maybe, having the support would have made a difference in the events that have unfolded for this young lady. The current critieria for diagnosis are the three major MH diagnosis. How can a time stamp be put on any MH service. Please provide the opportunity for clients to have supports after the delegated "length of service" passes.
