Purpose and Objectives

The Washington State Health Care Authority, hereafter called “HCA,” is initiating this Request for Application (RFA) to solicit Applications from organizations interested in participating on a project to increase the availability of Foundational Community Support (FCS) services linked to the evidence-based practice Individual Placement and Support (IPS), for Supported Employment (SE) or Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) for Supportive Housing (SH) for adults receiving Substance Use Disorder (SUD) services. The awarded ASAs will develop and implement a sustainability plan that will allow the Contractor to increase SE or SH services as part of an FCS program across Washington State.

FCS services are part of Washington State’s federally authorized, five-year, Medicaid transformation waiver. The FCS program provides targeted benefits for SH and SE to at-risk Medicaid populations with qualifying mental health, SUD, chronic homelessness, or other long-term care needs. These benefits are effectively serving people who are often the most vulnerable and have complex care needs.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Licensed to do business in the state of Washington or provide a commitment that it will become licensed in Washington within 30 calendar days of being selected as the Apparent Successful Applicant.
  • Currently providing supportive services for individuals with Substance Use Disorder (SUD).
  • Applicant is either in the process of contracting with Amerigroup TPA, or is willing to begin the process to contract with Amerigroup TPA upon execution of a Contract.
