Recognizing the need for the assessment of a co-occurring need
During the person’s treatment experience, if a co-occurring need is identified, a standardized mental health screen may be completed.   The individual or the placing authority may deny or pursue the identified need.    If the request is negated or denied, the pursuance of the request will end and be documented.  Upon the confirmation of the individual or placing authority’s request, a Divine Hope Counseling mental health therapist will follow through the with the standardized mental health screen.  If it tests “positive” a diagnostic assessment is completed by the Divine Hope Counseling mental health therapist.  Upon the completion of the mental health diagnostic assessment and recommendation of the mental health therapist, if counseling is needed, the individual may set up individual sessions with the Divine Hope Counseling mental health therapist, or choose a mental health therapist from their community.  The continuation of their treatment experience will be considered co-occurring in either event.  Because at this time all the services for co-occurring will be incorporated into the person’s treatment experience.    If the person has a service agreement with a county, the placing authority’s revision to the service agreement will include the HH modifier to the group (H2035) and individual (H2035 HQ) codes,  and a revision to the amount of allowed hours/units may be needed to accommodate additional group and individual sessions for their treatment experience.
