Trillium's Provider Network
Partnering to support well-being.
We are proud to work together with a network of incredible health care providers to offer the right, individualized care for the people we serve. Our collective community-based approach focuses on meeting people’s unique needs. Trillium recognizes our success in managing these services depends upon the providers in our network.

Permanent Supportive Housing Training Requirements and the Transitions to Community Living Initiative
North Carolina, entering the sixth year of the Transitions to Community Living Initiative (TCLI), coordinates with the Technical Assistance Collaborative (TAC) on the development of comprehensive Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) training. The PSH training is based on the Substance Abuse Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Evidence-Based Practices Toolkit and supports the use of best practices in supporting individuals with mental illness in independent, community housing. Effective July 1, 2020, the DHHS-approved Tenancy Supports Training is the PSH training.
The PSH training is required for Community Support Team (CST) staff. Both Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) teams and Transition Management Services (TMS) teams also provide critical housing support to individuals participating in TCLI.
- Per the current ACT policy and the attached TMS service definition, staff must complete the DHHS-approved Tenancy Supports training.
- To support North Carolina in successfully placing and supporting individuals in independent, community housing, DHHS is requiring all ACT Housing Specialists and TMS Team Leads to complete the PSH training. All ACT teams and TMS teams must meet this requirement no later than March 1, 2021.
The training must be facilitated by approved trainers to meet the requirements. Qualified trainers include:

DHHS Provider Satisfaction Survey
The Carolinas Center for Medical Excellence (CCME) was contracted to conduct a satisfaction survey of the providers participating in the 1915(b)/(c) Medicaid Waiver program. This survey allows the State and the health plans to measure how well they are meeting providers’ expectations and needs. The purpose of the survey is to assess provider perceptions of the LME/MCOs in North Carolina.
The results from this survey allow DHB to assess the LME/MCOs’ ability in the following three areas:
- Interacting with their network providers
- Providing training and support to their providers
- Providing Medicaid Waiver materials to help their providers strengthen their practice
