Community Mental Health Center Certification
A provider is required to complete one CMHC application in the DMHA Provider Portal. CMHCs are required to complete an Addiction Service Provider-Regular certification for each location that is providing services under the CMHC umbrella. This is a requirement for providing the continuum of care. If SUD services are being contracted out to another entity, the CMHC should provide that contract in their application. Please note that the contract should be specific in identifying what locations and services this entity is covering. Those entities will be required to have an Addiction Service Provider certification to be in compliance.
