The expansion of behavioral health integration in primary care settings over the past two decades has been facilitated by significant developments in models of integrated care.
In the primary care behavioral health model of integration, clinicians are integrated into primary care as behavioral health consultants to provide focused, evidence-based assessment and intervention to patients as well as consultative recommendations to the primary care provider. This arrangement of systemic and holistic care encourages patients and families to learn and implement self-management strategies that improve functioning and quality of life while also decreasing symptoms.
In this video program, Dr. Anne Dobmeyer demonstrates her work as a behavioral health consultant with a patient who is experiencing difficulties with managing diabetes, and shows also how a psychologist and primary care physician work together to provide seamless, team-based care.
Approach
The primary care behavioral health model of service delivery is a population-health model in which behavioral health clinicians function as integrated primary care team members to improve the primary care treatment of a wide range of behavioral health conditions, adverse health behaviors, and chronic medical problems.
As behavioral health consultants (BHCs), clinicians provide focused, evidence-based assessment and intervention to patients, as well as consultative recommendations to the primary care provider (PCP). Patients and families work with the BHC to learn and implement self-management strategies to improve functioning and quality of life and to decrease symptoms. BHCs provide verbal feedback to PCPs on each patient, including recommendations for specific actions the PCP can take during future interactions with the patient.
Appointments with the BHC typically last 20 to 30 minutes, and episodes of care for a particular problem often range from 1 to 4 appointments. Mirroring the pace of primary care, BHCs see a large volume of patients, often meeting with 10 to 14 patients per day.
The use of brief appointments and shorter courses of care allows services to be provided to a high volume of patients, consistent with a population health approach. Patients who need more intensive, specialized mental health treatment are referred to higher levels of care in a stepped care approach.
BHCs provide services for a wide range of conditions and patient populations.
Services are available to patients across the age spectrum, and may focus on improving health behaviors, managing chronic illness, preventing onset of health or mental health problems, addressing sub-clinical mental health symptoms, or treating clinical mental health disorders (Strosahl, 1998; Robinson & Reiter, 2016; Hunter, Goodie, Oordt, & Dobmeyer, 2017; Dobmeyer, 2017).
