The Behavioral Health Organization (BHO) initiative oversees the transition to managed care for Medicaid recipients who receive mental health (MH) and substance use disorder (SUD) services in New York State. The metrics emphasize improving rates of timely follow-up treatment post discharge, timely filling of appropriate medication prescriptions post discharge, and reducing rates of readmission.The BHO SUD Readmission dataset describes the rate of readmission for substance use disorder inpatient detoxification or chemical dependence inpatient rehabilitation within either 30 or 45 days of the last inpatient substance use disorder discharge for all discharges identified from paid fee-for-service Medicaid claims. The year 2015 saw the conclusion of the first phase of the Behavioral Health Organization initiative (BHO). A new Behavioral Health Managed Care Transition phase II is underway. The data contained in the BHO metrics span 2010 to 2014, using the 2010 calendar year for a baseline. Earlier in the program (2011‐2012) the metrics were calculated quarterly and on a year‐to‐date basis, later in (2013‐2014), New York State Office of Mental Health opted for semi‐annual and year‐to‐date aggregations.

This report is the third (in a series of four) regarding the First Release Reports for the 2014 NSDUH. This report presents data from the 2002 through 2014 NSDUHs for substance use treatment and mental health service use among people aged 12 or older. Results are presented for adolescents aged 12 to 17 and for adults aged 18 or older. Where trends are presented, the report focuses on long-term trends by comparingestimates from the 2014 NSDUH with comparable estimates in 2002 to 2013 (or in 2008 to 2013 for some estimates of mental health service use). Statistically significant differences are noted between estimates in 2014 and those in prior years.
