The Adult NT19 Mercy Initiative Non-Title SMI Transitions (MINT) Team engages NT19 adult members with a Serious Mental Illness (SMI) who are not receiving services and engaged with a SMI Behavioral Health Home (BHH)/Integrated Health Home (IHH) but have recently accessed an ER, hospital, crisis, or jail setting. The MINT Team is responsible for connecting and engaging with the member. The notified provider (MINT team and/or BHH/IHH (ABHC)) has the responsibility to assess the member and complete the NT19 enrollment to reopen in the system in order to complete coordination of care.
For NT19 SMI members who have been closed within 90 days, the MINT Team and previous BHH/IHH (ABHC) will coordinate to submit for enrollment the member will be paneled to their previous BHH/IHH (ABHC), and the MINT Team will coordinate with the BHH/IHH (ABHC).
For NT19 SMI members who have been closed for more than 90 days and utilize an ER, hospital or crisis setting, the MINT Team will assist the member with reconnecting with their previous BHH/IHH (ABHC).
For NT19 SMI members who have been closed for more than a year from their BHH/IHH (ABHC), a new pre-SMI assessment will be completed by the MINT Team for members who want to reopen at the clinic and CPR will assist the member with reconnecting with a BHH/IHH (ABHC) of their choice.
