Commenter: Rappahannock Area CSB

Required EBP/and programs may limit access to care
 

 By only allowing specific types of evidence based practices and programs, we may see limited access for care for individuals.  What happens when a CSB doesn't provide Assertive Community Treatment, Coordinated Specialty Care, Functional Family Therapy, or Multisystemic Therapy and the service is indicated?  Would the CSB then refer out?  Will the state provide a list of providers?  Will there even be private providers for all these services?  Are CSBs going to accept and serve out-of-catchment referrals?  This might overburden certain CSBs and delay access to care for individuals needing services that could be supported through additional interventions.
