Who is
eligible? How are these services funded?
BHRS is
provided by the state through Medical Assistance. However, the most
important element in a child’s eligibility is medical
need/necessity. If you do not have Medical Assistance but your
child is in need of treatment, we can help you qualify. Once you
qualify for Medical Assistance (M.A.) all of our services are
covered.
