Co-Occurring Disorders
o

o
Screening
• We are strongly encouraging all OMH and OASAS clinics to screen all clinic recipients for co-occurring
substance use or mental health disorders:
• For OASAS clinics, these are: Modified Mini Screen (MMS); Mental Health Screening Form III (MHSFIII); and K-6 (Kessler).
• For OMH clinics, these are: Modified Simple Screening Instrument for Substance Abuse (MSSI-SA);
CAGE-AID; and ASSIST.
Assessment
• All clinics are also strongly encouraged to assess all individuals who screen positive on one of the
above instruments.
Regulatory Reform
• Although the concept of dual certification (i.e., certification of a single program by both OASAS and
OMH) has been discussed, we conclude that integrated treatment is possible within a provider's
existing certification. This is referred to as “single certification,” i.e., services associated with substance
use and mental disorders may be provided in an integrated manner for persons with co-occurring
disorders in a single setting certified by either OMH or OASAS.
