Arizona Crosswalk: Improving Access to Medicaid Behavioral Health Services

As evidence continues to establish supportive housing as an intervention that stabilizes people with chronic illnesses, states are exploring ways to ensure Medicaid programs cover the services that supportive housing residents need.

CSH presents this crosswalk report, complete with recommendations.
