340 CCBHCs In Operation In U.S.; Majority Provide Services Outside Clinic Location

As of March 2021, 340 Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) were in operation across 40 U.S. States, Guam, and the District of Columbia. About 93% of CCBHCs provide services outside of the physical clinic space.

The CCBHC demonstration program was a provision of the federal, bipartisan Protecting Access to Medicare Act (PAMA) of 2014. The CCBHC model launched in 2017 with 66 clinics across eight demonstration states. Two more states joined the CCBHC demonstration in March 2020. Another 32 states have clinics that were awarded CCBHC expansion grants from the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration . . .
