We have posted a new informational page about Adult Mental Health Initiative (AMHI) reform efforts underway at the AMHI web page at the DHS website. The page contains information about why reform is needed, what’s in process, and plans going forward.
Purpose of AMHI Reform:
Main Purpose of AMHI Reform is to reallocate funds in an equitable and transparent way by creating a funding formula to distribute AMHI funds across the state. Through reform we hope to also:
- Create supports to continuously address regional service gaps and needs
- Establish long-term goals for AMHIs and methods for evaluating the impact on Minnesota's adult mental health service system
- Enhance data collection quality and use of data driven decision making.
Current Activities include:
- Contracting with a vendor to analyze cost-factors impacting mental health service delivery and design a new AMHI funding formula
- Hosting first of a series of quarterly Statewide Meetings on March 23 to share updates about vendor, timelines, and related process changes. These Statewide Meetings provide an opportunity to have open conversations about the funding formula development with stakeholders, get input into the process, and answer questions.
