What is a Qualified Practice Setting?

A Qualified Practice Setting must provide the following:

  1. Professional coverage for medical emergencies during closed hours.
  2. Case management for behavioral health services.

Requesting an increase in your limit can occur once you have a 100 person limit for 1 year. The regulations designed the increases in 1 year increments as follows: year 1 = 30 patients; year 2 = 100 patients; year 3 = 275 patients.

What if I don’t have a waiver?

If you don’t have a waiver, Bright Heart Health will reimburse you the cost to get the waiver. The course is 8 hours in length and can be taken entirely online.
