Pennsylvania Certification Board Certification Reimbursement Application

PCB Certification Reimbursement Q&A

Have you recently received your CAAC, CADC, CRS, or CPS certification? Do you work in Philadelphia County? If so, you could qualify for a reimbursement of your initial exam fee! DBHIDS and BHTEN are committed to helping our Philadelphia behavioral health provider network attain professional certifications despite the cost barrier of the initial exam fee. If you have not received one of these certifications yet, but are interested in pursuing one, a representative from the Pennsylvania Certification Board will present on and answer questions about attaining the certifications.

As the ASAM framework is being implemented across all levels of care, we want to support drug and alcohol services staff to obtain accreditation such as  Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC), Certified Associate Addictions Counselor (CAAC), Certified Peer Specialist. (CPS), and Certified Recovery Specialist (CRS).


In an effort to bolster these certifications into our system, we will be hosting a Q&A session with the Pennsylvania Certification Board (PCB) on Thursday February 13th from 10:00-11:00am. Eligibility information for the reimbursement and each of the certifications will be shared.
