New Practice Update
NASW member only 

Part II: Advocating for Change in Home Health Care,    This practice update clarifies reimbursement for mental health services rendered by a clinical social worker when a patient is receiving home health care services.
________________

Managed Care Directory of Resources for Clinical Social Workers in Private Practice Resources 

Clinical social workers are having some problems
receiving
reimbursement when rendering services
requiring the use of
the Health and Behavior Assessment
CPT codes.  The national NASW office is aware of this
problem and is actively advocating for and working on
resolving reimbursement of these codes for clinical
social workers.   A practice update is available which
identifies the problem  with the Health and Behavior 
Assessment Codes
.
