Subject to federal approval, for dates of service on and after January 1, 2025, the Department shall make a one-time adjustment to the add-on rates for services delivered by physicians who are board-certified in psychiatry and advanced practice registered nurses who hold a current certification in psychiatric and mental health nursing.
