Office of Behavioral Health (OBH) Training Requirements for Unlicensed Direct Care Staff

Welcome

It is important for unlicensed direct care staff to have a basic understanding of key concepts when working with members receiving behavioral health services.

OBH developed modules to address these required competencies and Magellan has included these modules below.  After completing each module click on the attestation form for these OBH modules, complete and submit it for documentation that you completed the module.  You are not required to utilize the OBH modules, however equivalent training must be utilized in its place covering the topics and content described in the modules.  If you wish to complete these trainings via an entity other than OBH, Magellan or one of the Healthy Louisiana Plans, the training must be submitted via email to Magellan at LACSoCProviderQuestion@MagellanHealth.com for approval consideration prior to participating in the training.
