Weekly DHHS COVID-19 Update Call with Behavioral Health and IDD Providers
TODAY
Thursday-March 26, 2020
3:00 p.m.
As the number of COVID-19 cases and unfortunate deaths continue to climb in North Carolina, DHHS leaders clearly understand that keeping our BH and IDD providers informed about key COVID-19 related State and Medicaid policy changes is paramount to buttressing our response efforts to reducing COVID-19's spread and harm.
TODAY'S weekly call with BH and IDD providers will focus primarily on telehealth policies and new guidance for health care providers that
have come into effect since our call with BH and IDD providers last week.
The lead presenters for this week's call TODAY will be:
- Dr. Carrie Brown, Chief Medical Officer for Division of BH and IDD
- Dr. Shannon Dowler, Chief Medical Officer for NC Medicaid
- Deputy Secretary Kody Kinsley, NC Division of Behavioral Health and Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities
- Deputy Secretary David Richard, Division of Health Benefits/NC Medicaid
We hope you can join us.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
We will provide a weekly update for Behavioral Health and IDD Consumers and Community Stakeholders on Monday, March 30. More information to come.
