Happy Holidays from the NY City BHIT Team!
The BHIT Team wants to give you a quick update on what to look forward to for 2017!
BHIT Provider Participation Contracts
- We will be sending out the BHIT contracts in mid-January to all of our enrolled Organizations.
- The contracts include milestone documentation templates for your Organization to complete in order to receive BHIT funding support.
Negotiated HCBS Pricing
- For Organizations that are looking to contract with one of our BHIT Qualified vendors, ensure you ask about the HCBS discount pricing!
- Our Qualified vendors have been working with us to offer you a special discount for being part of the BHIT program.
What should you do now?
- Create a folder on your computer and start collecting/saving the required documentation (see milestone attachment). This will prepare your Organization to send out BHIT milestone documents to the BHIT Team in January.
- Don’t be shy – If you have a question reach out to the BHIT Team or your Qualified Vendor
- Look out for emails about upcoming BHIT webinars in January!
