3 Eligibility for MCP Coverage: Mild to Moderate Impairment in Functioning A member is covered by the MCP for services if the he or she is diagnosed with a mental health condition as defined by the current DSM resulting in mild to moderate distress or impairment of mental, emotional, or behavioral functioning (those who do not qualify for Specialty Mental Health Services --SMHS): Primary care providers identify the need for a mental health screening and refer to a specialist within their network. Upon assessment the mental health specialists can determine the level of impairment and refer members with significant impairment to the MHP for a SMHS assessment. Members may also contact the MCP for a referral to a mental health provider within the MCP network.  When a member’s condition improves under SMHS and the mental health providers in the MCP and MHP coordinate care, the member may return to the MH provider in the MCP network. Note: Conditions that the current DSM identifies as relational problems are not covered, i.e. couples counseling or family counseling. 3
