 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
ADAA is collaborating with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services on a new Connected Care initiative to improve chronic care management and provide resources to help you learn more about new ways to support your practice. Chronic care management services are a critical component of primary care, and cover a variety of mental health conditions. CMS established separate payment under four billing codes to increase payment for the additional time and resources you spend to manage the care of patients with two or more serious chronic conditions outside of the usual face-to-face encounters. The new codes help pay for the between-appointment help your Medicare and dual eligible (Medicare and Medicaid) patients with multiple chronic conditions need to stay on track with their treatment plans and overall health. The codes are: CPT code 99490, CPT code 99487, CPT code 99489, and HCPCS code G0506.
Download the Connected Care Health Care Professional Toolkit to find information about eligibility, resources about service requirements and how to bill, a video featuring a health care professional, patient education video, postcard and posters and other resources to help you build an effective program in your practice. You can also order printed resources for your waiting room or download by visiting go.cms.gov/CCM. Materials are available in English and Spanish.

One recent study provided strong insight to understanding the interaction among several brain areas in depression.

Poor sleep is a well-known risk factor and symptom of depression, but a new study at Duke University looks at why not everyone who struggles with sleep becomes depressed. The findings show that people whose brains are more attuned to rewards may be protected from the negative mental health effects of poor sleep. The study was published in The Journal of Neuroscience.

Patients with major depressive disorder have increased brain levels of a marker of microglial activation, a sign of inflammation, according to a new study. Scientists have found that the increase in the inflammatory marker was present specifically in patients with MDD who were experiencing suicidal thoughts, pinning the role of inflammation to suicidality rather than a diagnosis of MDD itself.
