Subject: Prohibits referral to a specific psychiatric residential treatment facility in a judges child placement order. Summary/Major Elements: Under the Medicaid program, if a child is placed in a specific psychiatric residential treatment facility ( PRTF) by a judges order, the placement is presumed to be punitive, not medically necessary, and therefore, not reimbursable by Medicaid. Placements made by a medical provider or multi-disciplinary treatment team are reimbursable by Medicaid. This act provides that placement orders of children under the Child Protection Act, the Children in Need of Supervision Act and the Juvenile Justice Act shall not specify a particular psychiatric residential treatment facility ( PRTF) or level of care.
