Substance Use Disorder Health Homes (SUD HH)

Substance Use Disorder Health Homes (SUD HHs) are Medicaid/HMP funded programs that focus on care coordination, specifically for individuals with an Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), Cocaine Use Disorder (CUD) or other Stimulant Use Disorder (StUD). While not treatment specific, SUD HH services were designed to help beneficiaries connect to medically necessary services and to address the complexity of comorbid physical and behavioral health conditions. Participation in SUD Health Homes is voluntary and enrolled beneficiaries may opt-out at any time.

Michigan has five overarching goals for the SUD HH program:

1) improve care management of beneficiaries including medications for substance use disorders, including medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) and medications for Alcohol Use Disorder (MAUD).

2) improve care coordination between physical and behavioral health care services.

3) improve care transitions between primary, specialty, and inpatient settings of care.

4) improve coordination to dental care.

5) educate on fetal alcohol spectrum disorders.

Michigan’s SUD HH model is comprised of a team of providers, including a Lead Entity (LE) and designated Health Home Partners (HHPs). As guided by the MDHHS SUD HH Handbook, CMHPSM as LE for Region 6, ensures all HHPs follow the six core health home services of the program:
