Macomb County Community Mental Health

What Macomb County Community Mental Health does

Macomb County Community Mental Health (MCCMH) is a public behavioral health authority that has operated since 1961 as the designated Prepaid Inpatient Health Plan (PIHP) and Community Mental Health Services Program (CMHSP) for Macomb County, Michigan. The agency provides mental health treatment, substance use disorder services, intellectual and developmental disability support, and autism services to county residents regardless of income or insurance status. As a federally Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC), MCCMH functions as both a direct service provider and a regional network manager, contracting with 229+ providers across Macomb, Oakland, Wayne, and surrounding counties. The organization employs 501-1,000 staff and is headquartered in Clinton Township, Michigan.

Core offerings span 24/7 crisis intervention (a phone crisis line, mobile response teams, and a newly opened 8-capacity Substance Use Engagement Center in Sterling Heights); outpatient mental health care including walk-in screenings, psychiatric evaluations, medication reviews, and case management; specialized programs for children with emotional disturbances, individuals with autism, and veterans (via the Veteran Navigator); and integrated physical-behavioral health services. Supporting infrastructure includes the Crossroads Clubhouse psychosocial rehabilitation program, the MyStrength digital wellness platform, and Patient Access API and Provider Directory API endpoints built with PCE Systems as the EHR vendor to satisfy CMS interoperability and ONC 2015 Edition Cures Update requirements. In FY2025 the agency processed 48,403 service requests, with 89% approved as submitted.

The business model is publicly funded rather than commercial: MCCMH operates as a county government entity under Macomb County and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS). Primary funding flows through Medicaid managed-care contracts, State Opioid Response (SOR/SOR2) grants, county appropriations, and opioid settlement funds. Services to individuals are billed on a sliding-scale fee based on income and family size; all insurance is accepted and uninsured residents are served without exclusion. Recent strategic initiatives include a new Substance Use Engagement Center that expanded eligibility criteria in June 2026 and an extensive leadership transition in 2024 that installed permanent CEO Traci Smith, COO Helen Klingert, and Chief Privacy & Compliance Officer Chandra Cozart.
