Relationship Between Medical & Behavioral Health Services (Collaboration for Same-Day Access)
• Coordinated (shared costs) = Behavioral services by referral at separate location via synchronous (real-time) or asynchronous (later) information exchange
• Co-Located (separate funding sources)= By referral processes at primary care location (behavioral health visit in referral office)
• Integrated (same funding resource) = At primary care location (face to face with behavioral health team or by virtual synchronized telemetry)

Coordinated Care• Coordinated care elements:
– Appointment arrival notification – Clinical information exchange protocols – Coordinated treatment planning and/or problem
solving for complex patients or as needed• Expect communication to go both ways.
– Mental health clinicians are healthcare professionals who should be knowledgeable about the patient’s health issues.
• Ask about the person’s health behavior goals and consider them in treatment planning.

Coordination Plus – Specialty Mental Health as a Consultant to Primary Care• Massachusetts Child Psychiatry Access
Program• For adults in NC, Medicaid pays for time of
primary care physician and psychiatrist as patient visit rates (for consultation about a patient) whether the psychiatrist has met the patient or not.
• When behavioral health clinicians are working in primary care, referrals to specialty care for patients in need of longer-term work is more likely to be successful.

Co-Located Behavioral Health (Helps Reduce Stigma!)
Advantages
• Access greatly improved • Improved patient &
provider satisfaction • Cost effective• Improved clinical outcomes
Challenges
• Referrals don’t show• Case-loads fill up• Slow primary care physician
learning curve• Communication still difficult
12
• Behavioral health in the same space with primary care • Involvement by referral • Separate behavioral health and medical treatment plans
