Integrated Care: When? How? Now? The Rational & State Policy Enablers

Increasing states are looking at ways they can better integrate mental health, behavioral health, and substance use with primary care. However, to accomplish this level of transformation, there are various state and system level enablers that need to be in place to optimize the state’s likelihood for success. Dr. Mike Hogan, a former mental health commission for three states, will discuss why integration is important for states to pursue and what the key components are for states to consider.

This webinar is presented by The Office of Integrated Healthcare Research and Policy in the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. The webinar series is made possible with funding from the California Mental Health Services Authority Integrated Behavioral Health Project in partnership with the Collaborative Family Healthcare Association, the AHRQ Academy for Integrating Behavioral Health and Primary Care, and the Advancing Care Together project of UC-Denver Dept. of Family Medicine.
