Primary care physicians miss 90% of their patients’ behavioral health needs because they lack the time, training and tools. Untreated behavioral health adds $560 to the monthly cost of care for each patient with a chronic illness. The problem is especially acute in Medicaid where 40% of patients are at risk.Total US extra cost of comorbid behavioral health is estimated at $600 billion, and research shows significant savings with integrated care. Therefore, CMS is anxious to increase behavioral health care in federally qualified healthcare centers (FQHCs). So, it recently offered $350M in supplemental funding to add therapists and associated infrastructure. We give providers the additional support they need to deliver integrated care and achieve the desired savings and improved outcomes with increasing revenues.

The status quo isn't working for many institutions investing in more behavioral health resources. Behavioral Health staff is underutilized, and their calendars are clogged with unnecessary referrals. Meanwhile, patients who could use their help more don't come forward and their PCP doesn't probe into non-medical concerns. We have a rigorous triage system that prompts PCPs to make more appropriate referrals for more patients. We facilitate the "warm handoff" by sharing our reports with the on-duty BH provider, and our process educates patients about the mind-body connection, reducing stigma and increasing appointment reliability. This reduces the need for overbooking. appointments in the behavioral health clinic.

There have been many behavioral health screening instruments on the market for use in medical clinics, for DIY self-care and employee wellness programs. Numerous screeners are in the public domain. The clinician must combine many screeners to get a picture of the whole patient. The PHQ- 9 screening tool for depression is built into most EHRs. Besides identifying potential candidates for integrated medical and mental care, these screeners are a huge productivity killer for providers. The medical staff bears the burden of analysis and interpretation, but they have neither time nor training to be comfortable in that role. Worse yet, the interpretation often requires additional patient history, further reducing productivity and increasing uncertainty, which leads to more unproductive BH referrals.
