ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Certified community behavioral health clinics (CCBHCs) are designed to provide comprehensive care for individuals with co-occurring mental and substance use disorders. The authors classified outpatient mental health treatment facilities on the basis of provision of services for clients with co-occurring disorders and assessed whether CCBHCs differed from other outpatient mental health facilities in services provided.METHODS:
The authors used latent class analysis to identify distinct services for clients with co-occurring disorders in 5,692 outpatient mental health facilities in the 2021 National Substance Use and Mental Health Services Survey. Nine indicators were included treatment for clients with substance or alcohol use disorder co-occurring with serious mental illness or serious emotional disturbance, specialized programs or groups for such clients, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for alcohol use disorder, MAT for opioid use disorder, detoxification, individual counseling, group counseling, case management, and 12-step groups. A multinomial logistic regression was used to estimate whether CCBHCs were associated with any identified classes after analyses controlled for facility characteristics.RESULTS:
A four-class solution provided a model with the best fit, comprising comprehensive services (23.4%), case management services (17.7%), counseling and self-help services (58.6%), and professional services (4.3%). Regressing class membership on facility type and covariates, the authors found that compared with community mental health clinics (CMHCs), CCBHCs were more likely to belong to the comprehensive services class than to the case management services, counseling and self-help services, and professional services classes.CONCLUSIONS:
CCBHCs were more likely than other outpatient programs to offer comprehensive care, and CCBHC status of a CMHC facilitated enhanced service provisions.
