The Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative: A Comprehensive Guide for California Schools

What’s Inside?

We've put together a comprehensive overview of the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative (CYBHI), an expansive initiative led by the state of California to transform behavioral health support for children and youth. 

The CYBHI is a significant new opportunity to increase funding for school-based behavioral health services in public schools, including K-12 settings, colleges, and universities.

Our guide will explain:

  • the goals and framework of the CYBHI
  • how funding and fee scales work
  • who is considered a provider and able to bill for services 
  • how the state is providing support
  • operational readiness requirements
  • cohorts and timelines to implementation

The CYBHI promises sweeping improvements to the way mental and behavioral health services are provided in education settings. For example, did you know that PPS credentialed providers will be able to bill for services under the CYBHI? Dive into our guide to learn more about the CYBHI, and how it might revolutionize the way you fund and provide student care.

Exym is here to support schools as they embrace the new landscape of the CYBHI. We've been a trusted name in California mental health billing for over 20 years, and we already have a custom billing solution designed for CYBHI Cohort 1 that is available for all cohorts in the CYBHI program.
