Peer Recovery Support Services in Substance Use Treatment Agencies

IDHS-DBHR is hosting a virtual training on Peer Recovery Support Services in Substance Use Treatment Agencies on Monday, June 8, 2026, from 1:00-2:30 p.m. All licensed substance use treatment providers are encouraged to join to learn about this valuable service and how to appropriately bill for it.

Join Kim Sriner, Recovery Support Services Manager, and James Kowalsky, Integrated Recovery Support Services Administrator, to learn about recovery, Illinois’ commitment to peer support, what peer recovery support services (RSS) are, why peer RSS works, a comparison between clinical services and peer RSS, where we are today regarding Medicaid billing for peer RSS, the Illinois peer credentials, and what billing for peer RSS looks like pre- and post-treatment vs. during treatment.

There will be time set aside for questions as well.
