The Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse (OMHSAS) is issuing a correction to the OMHSAS-26-01 Payment for Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services bulletin that was originally issued on February 6, 2026.


This correction addresses a typo in the service description for Psychiatric Rehab Mobile – Group. The previous bulletin incorrectly listed the group size limit as two (2). The correct maximum group size is no more than five (5) individuals in alignment with the licensing standard in § 5230.54 (a)(2). This update corrects the group size limit to five in the service description for procedure code H0036.


Please refer to the updated version of the Payment for Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services.


If you have any questions, please contact OMHSAS for further clarification. Members may also direct questions to RCPA COO and Mental Health Policy Director Jim Sharp.
