Self Determination Rock Updated – June 18, 2019

Macomb County Community Mental Health (MCCMH) currently serves approximately 904 individuals through self-determination arrangements.  MCCMH began exploring a transition of self-determination arrangements to the Agency with Choice Model in April 2019. MCCMH met with multiple groups to share this plan, and to hear concerns about the proposed transition to the Agency with Choice model. The meetings included MCCMH Contracted Fiscal Intermediaries, CLS Providers, and Case Management provider staff. Based on the feedback and review, MCCMH no longer plans to transition all of the individuals served by Fiscal Intermediaries to the Agency of Choice model. We will, however, individually review each person served by a Fiscal Intermediary using the direct-employment model and ensure choice of models. As part of its quality improvement efforts MCCMH is also examining the need to require all self-determination models to require the same staff trainings and comparable reimbursement.

MCCMH is committed to promoting and encouraging the continued use of self-determination with persons served and their families, including those with complex needs. MCCMH welcomes feedback regarding the model examination. 

If you or a loved one are experiencing sadness, lack of energy or even irritability, you may be depressed.  Additional signs include feeling sad, lack of appetite, isolation, and crying and not knowing why.  These can make day-to-day living harder, and may even lead to physical health problems.

The Macomb County Crisis Line is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week at 586-307-9100, that’s 586-307-9100. Listen to it here.
