Service Definitions describe the services that providers can be paid for in the state's public system of MD/DD/SA services. The definitions include descriptions of:
Some service definitions are new, some are staying the same, some may be revised and some may be eliminated.
Overall, though, it is important for providers to know that many services are being bundled together into service definitions. This means that anyone wanting to bill for providing a service definition has to be able to provide all the services in that definition or bundle. Individual professionals or paraprofessionals will need to work for or with an agency that can provide all the services described in a service definition.
