Good morning,
The NYS Council is pleased to announce the second webinar in our three-part March 2024 training series focused on various elements of New York’s newly approved 1115 waiver amendment, and other statewide initiatives of import to NYS Council members and the individuals they serve. In all of the presentations, our goal is to help position NYS Council members to make the most of the opportunities presented by the new waiver programs, and to empower you to make smart choices regarding who you align your agency with as the implementation continues.

OASAS Addiction Services Refinancing Project: What We Know and How Providers Should Prepare
March 11, 10 -11 am
(Zoom Webinar link to follow – no registration required.)
This is a ‘Members Only’ event.
Webinar Description:
March 11 from 10-11:00
Currently the NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) provides nearly $500 million in net deficit funding for eligible outpatient and residential treatment providers. In the attempt to modernize the payment system and address funding inequities between historical and newer programs, OASAS is working to develop new alternative funding approaches that provide greater equity across levels of care and types of providers. Drawing from models in other states, newly developed payment structures will focus on ensuring value in quality care, driving improved outcomes, and facilitating programmatic operational efficiencies. HMA’s Kamala Greene-Genece and Joshua Rubin will provide an overview of possible payment models and specific strategies on how programs can begin to align themselves for the future.
