Did you know that your mental health clients’ allergy histories could be an important consideration in their risk for suicide? “Joelle Abramowitz, Ph.D., from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and colleagues examined the impact of allergies triggered by seasonal pollen on suicides. The researchers found that the count of suicides in a county increased as pollen levels rose, with up to 7.4 percent more suicides when pollen levels were at their highest. On days with the highest pollen levels, individuals with a known mental health condition or treatment had an 8.6 percent higher incidence of suicides. As pollen levels rose, Google searches for allergy and depression symptoms increased.” Click the link below to learn more.

Under current Medicaid rules, many small mental health and addiction treatment facilities are excluded from reimbursement due to the outdated “Institution for Mental Diseases” (IMD) exclusion. H.R. 5462 would amend this policy by allowing Medicaid coverage for facilities with 36 beds or fewer that meet nationally recognized, evidence-based standards of care. This bill would help close treatment gaps, reduce pressure on emergency rooms and the criminal justice system, and ultimately improve outcomes for vulnerable populations. Please use Treatment Advocacy Center’s template to
send emails to your federal legislators, to ask them to consider signing on as co-sponsors.

H.R.5462, the Michelle Alyssa Go Act, has been filed by Representative Daniel S. Goldman and introduced to the House. It currently has 9 bipartisan co-sponsors. Under current Medicaid rules, many small mental health and addiction treatment...

We are so proud of our sister organization Help in the Home Clinical Services for their dedication to finding ways to make comprehensive, collaborative, and customized mental health care more accessible.

At HITHCS, one of our core goals is making care accessible. We know that cost can be a barrier, so we’ve built flexibility into our fee structure. Our tiered rates—including Pay It Forward, Sustaining, and Equitable Options—allow us to serve clients at different financial levels while keeping services sustainable.

In our first year, we provided 37 accessible appointments, and in our second year, that number grew to 84. Every one of these represents someone who received quality care at a reduced rate—because we believe finances should never be the reason someone goes without support.

Our “pay it forward” and equitable rates help balance the system, ensuring that those who can contribute more help make it possible for others to pay less. This model keeps us rooted in our mission: accessible, high-quality care for all.

Help in the Home holds safety of both clients and staff as a core guiding principle. On August 11th, 2025, President Trump announced the federal takeover of the District of Columbia’s Metropolitan Police Department and the deployment of the National Guard. Many of our clients are residents of Washington, DC which means that our care coordinators travel regularly to the city. Even though the 30 day limit on the emergency order expired on September 10th, National Guard troops will continue to patrol DC for the foreseeable future. Check out our latest blog to learn more about the additional precautions we are taking during this time.
