How we read this state's schedule --------------------------------- Sheet header: 'Rates are for days of service on 8/1/2025 - 6/30/2026'. This is the most recent MH/SU (ABA) schedule posted on the DHHS Medicaid Provider Rates and Fee Schedules page as of 2026-09-30; other schedules have July 2026 versions but no SFY27 MH/SU/ABA file is posted, and no 2026 provider bulletin (26-01..26-15) changes ABA rates, so the 8/1/2025 rates appear to remain current (not confirmed by DHHS for dates after 6/30/2026). Rates set by Provider Bulletin 25-14 / Health Plan Advisory 25-08 (effective 8/1/2025), cut from 7/1-7/31/2025 rates (e.g., 97153 was $36.11). ABA provider types: 83=BCBA, 84=BCaBA, 85=RBT. No provider-tier differential; no payment modifiers listed. Most NE Medicaid members are in Heritage Health managed care; MCO rates adjusted to match.
