• The Division of Care and Treatment Services (DCTS) is putting together an advisory committee (AC) for administrative rule writing in response to Act 122, which focuses on funding and certifying peer recovery coaches. The AC will advise on the creation of the new DHS 72, which will set policy for recovery coaches in Wisconsin. It is typical to have an advisory committee for larger rule projects such as this. The AC will meet approximately three times this spring. DCTS is seeking recovery coaches or professionals with experience with recovery coaches to advise on writing this new administrative rule, as well as advise on changes to DHS 105 and 107 which govern Medicaid reimbursement and providers, in relation to recovery coaches.
