Show Notes
Since 2021, Michigans Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics have expanded mental health care access, addressing a post-pandemic surge. Providers like LifeWays and Summit Pointe offer psychotherapy, crisis care, peer support, and home-based respite, coordinating with primary care doctors. This model has led to improved client health, with increased diabetes screenings, tobacco cessation, and counseling for unhealthy alcohol use. However, key grants expire by 2027, and federal Medicaid changes threaten coverage, urging Michigan lawmakers to secure funding and combat false insurance promises.
