This review is an initial exploration of team development within effective integrated primary and behavioral healthcare teams. Six integrated teams in safety net primary care settings were interviewed on the development of the clinical team.
This learning session explored how primary care and behavioral health providers and/or networks of providers can make the case for a payor (e.g., a Medicaid plan or a Medicaid agency) to support closer collaboration and integration of primary care and behavioral health services and payments (e.g., data sharing infrastructure investments, care management and coordination payments, performance payments, shared savings, etc.).
The Colorado Health Institute (CHI) studied six practices that are testing an array of approaches to integration of primary care and behavioral health.
