Payment rates establishment for certain substance use disorder treatment services

SF 1826 establishes specific payment rates for substance use disorder treatment services funded through Minnesota's behavioral health fund. It sets daily rates for different care levels (e.g., $79.84 for ASAM level 0.5 early intervention, $224.06 for ASAM level 3.5 residential care) and defines eligible services like outpatient treatment, medication-assisted therapy, and withdrawal management. The bill also creates enhanced payment rates for programs serving parents with children (requiring on-site or verified off-site childcare), culturally specific programs, and disability-responsive services. These rates directly affect licensed treatment providers receiving state funding under the behavioral health fund. The changes aim to standardize payments while incentivizing specialized care models.
