Consultation and education services

Services required of each community mental health center (CMHC) by section 201 of the CMHC Act which consist of consultation with, and education for, the staffs of programs and institutions in the CMHC’s community which are likely to be responsible for or come in contact with people with mental illness (such as schools, prisons, bars and courts). Such services are specially subsidized by section 204 of the CMHC Act because they are high priority preventive care, not usually reimbursed by the recipient institutions, and not covered under health insurance (which rarely covers services not directly delivered to insured individuals).
