Providers

Whenever possible, we help families arrange for the services their child needs by using their natural financial resources. If more intensive or specialized services are needed to meet the child’s needs, we may arrange services through the NJ Children’s System of Care. Some of these services are paid by Medicaid and other services are paid through different sources. Some of these services are short-term and authorized in timeframes no longer than 90 days, some are arranged to be sustainable through the family’s resource network. We work intensively through our Child and Family Teams to help the families move toward obtaining sustainable services that can continue beyond our involvement.

Providers that MonmouthCares authorizes for Medicaid payment, or who are paid directly, are required to have a signed agreement. That agreement is known as a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Providers that are paid through other means (insurance, self-pay, sliding scale) that are working with a MonmouthCares family are asked to sign either the MOU or an Affiliation Agreement.

The Affiliation Agreement indicates the provider’s agreement with the Wraparound philosophy which is the basis of our work with families. It is important to the success of our families that all providers be part of the Child and Family Team and participate fully in the Team process. 

MonmouthCares is always interested in expanding our pool of qualified providers. If you wish to speak to someone regarding an MOU, please reach out to Chad Majczan, Director of Community Relations and Resource Development (732-222-8008 x 159, cmajczan@monmouthcares.org).
