Fiscal Administration Contracts and Awards
CIBHS bridges the gap between high-level policy and front-line implementation through a full suite of technical and administrative solutions. From clinical training and systems transformation to agile third-party administration (TPA), we provide the structure, expertise, and fiscal rigor needed to build a responsive and sustainable behavioral health system.
Program Overview
CIBHS serves as a Third-Party Administrator (TPA) and Fiscal Intermediary, helping state agencies and county behavioral health departments move initiatives forward faster by navigating contracting, grant management, procurement, and fiscal requirements with integrity and compliance. Unlike traditional fiscal agents, we offer an integrated model that pairs robust financial oversight with specialized technical assistance and expertise. Through an integrated suite of services, CIBHS both manages funding and safeguards investments. As an operational backbone, CIBHS reduces administrative burden, ensures compliance, enables timely implementation, access to expertise, and accountable stewardship of public resources.
Why This Work Matters
Administrative complexity should never stand in the way of community care. State agencies and county behavioral health departments operate in high-stakes regulatory environments where administrative demands can stall vital community progress.
Through our integrated Third-Party Administration (TPA) and fiscal intermediary services, CIBHS serves as a centralized partner and operational accelerator for counties and state agencies. We manage the complexities of grant stewardship, procurement, and fiscal oversight while also providing clinical technical assistance and implementation support.
By aligning technical expertise with fiscal infrastructure, CIBHS enables counties and state agencies to deploy expertise rapidly, meet state and federal requirements, and sustain the momentum necessary for meaningful systems change.
