About This Program

NRPVYC has managed the Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) clinical training program in Nebraska since 2009 and has trained over 200 CPP clinicians. It is recognized and appreciated that CPP is an intensive service requiring significant clinical time that is not fully reimbursable through insurance, which may lead to fewer CPP cases or referrals accepted.

To address this challenge, NRPVYC applied for and has been awarded ARPA federal funding through UNMC BHECN (Behavioral Health Education Center of Nebraska) to provide enhanced reimbursement to CPP clinicians for services performed between January 1, 2023, and December 31, 2025, that are not reimbursable by insurance or other funding opportunities.

NRPVYC will evaluate whether CPP capacity increases across Nebraska as a result. The short-term goal of this project is to increase CPP service capacity in Nebraska. The long-term goal of this project is to utilize findings from the evaluation to help inform systems changes in the reimbursement rules for CPP.

Who Can Request Reimbursement?

Any Nebraska licensed clinician who is fully trained in or being currently trained in CPP.
