This section defines the components of individual services under Pennsylvania's behavioral health treatment (EBT/IBHS) framework for children, youth, and young adults, including behavior consultation services, mobile therapy services, and behavioral health technician (BHT) services. It specifies what each service type consists of and restricts BHT providers from delivering interventions beyond their qualifications. Facility operators and service providers must ensure staff roles align with these defined service components and that BHT staff do not exceed their credentialed scope of practice.
