Community Mental Health Center Services Act of 1990

Summary

Community Mental Health Center Services Act of 1990 - Amends title XVIII (Medicare) of the Social Security Act to extend covered partial hospitalization services to include psychologist and mental health professionals services prescribed by a physician and provided by a hospital or community mental health center to its outpatients as distinct and organized intensive ambulatory treatment services offering less than 24-hour daily care. Extends direct Medicare coverage to cover services furnished by marriage and family therapists, psychiatric nurses, and clinical mental health counselors on-site at a community mental health center or necessarily furnished off-site due to the condition of the service recipient. Refers to such services as qualified mental health professionals services. Sets the Medicare payment for such services at 80 percent of the lesser of the actual charge for such services or the amount determined pursuant to a fee schedule established by the Secretary of Health and Human Services. Requires that payment for mental health professionals services be made only on an assignment-related basis.
