On January 27, 2023, Mercy Care sent a provider notification titled Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) - Jail Releases.
At this time, we would like to clarify that outpatient agencies responsible for the supervision and administration of Court Ordered Treatment may amend a members COT during incarceration. This will result in a Mental Health Hold. If a member is released while under a Mental Health Hold, they will be transported directly to a crisis facility upon release. Outpatient agencies may quash (cancel) an amendment in order to lift the Mental Health Hold.
As always, don't hesitate to contact your Mercy Care Network Management Representative with any questions or comments. You can find this notice and all other provider notices on our Mercy Care website.
Thanks for all you do!
