“The National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP) is pleased to announce a new webinar, Connecting the Two Worlds: States Integrating Primary and Behavioral Health Care," on August 29, 2013, from 12:30-2:00 pm (EDT).
As states pursue payment and delivery reform to yield a more integrated delivery system, stronger connections between primary and behavioral health care are essential. This webinar will explore challenges and opportunities to building linkages and care models that meet the needs of patients with physical and behavioral health care needs. It will also examine strategies for blending disparate funding streams from different payers and exchanging data needed to support care coordination and working relationships between varied providers. The webinar will feature the experiences of Washington state, Minnesota, and an innovative community mental health center that is leveraging a Health Care Innovation award from the CMS Innovation Center to integrate care. Register now here.
This webinar is the final installment in a multi-part NASHP series to help states that are ready to take the next step in thinking about multi-payer approaches to payment and delivery reform, moving beyond the medical home. Previous webinars in the series can be viewed here.
Following the webinar, a small group of participating states will be invited to join in a virtual consultation with our featured faculty and project staff around the issues raised in this webinar.
