July 1st, 2021 marked the start of NC Medicaid Transformation with the transition to Standard Care Plans. NC DHHS has begun the process of preparing for Tailored Care Management (TCM) to begin on December 1st, 2022. To prepare for this, DHHS has developed partnerships with North Carolina Area Health Education Center (NC AHEC) to provide practice support, technical assistance, and continuing professional development to help Tailored Care Management providers who have applied and passed the desk review in the transition to Tailored Care Management. The TCM Continuing Professional Development programs are designed to assist TCM candidates with evidenced-based practices in all treatment settings for the successful implementation of TCM.


This program will define serious mental illness and review common experiences across the life course, from onset in adolescence and early adulthood, through its path in aging populations. The program will also review evidence-based biopsychosocial treatment approaches, including coordinated specialty care teams for early intervention in psychosis, cognitive behavioral therapy, clinical case management, family psychoeducation, and psychosocial rehabilitation.
