چکیده انگلیسی


• Describes a technical assistance approach using a validated measure of integration
• Examines improvements in integration following the receipt of technical assistance
• On average, FQHC sites improved capability one-half point on the 5-point BHIMC index
• Improvements in integrated care capability were evident in all seven BHIMC domains
• In particular, FQHCs demonstrated improved integration of substance use services

An implementation approach, featuring direct, onsite technical assistance is described, and findings from a pilot study assessing the capability of Federally Qualified Health Centers to provide integrated behavioral health services are presented. Investigators used the Behavioral Health Integration in Medical Care (BHIMC) index to measure integration at baseline and follow-up at four FQHCs in New Jersey. Results indicate that the average baseline capability score of 1.95 increased to 2.44 at follow-up, almost one-half point on the five-point BHIMC index. This pilot project demonstrates that co-occurring capability can be assessed, and system-wide technical assistance can be delivered to assist FQHCs in integrating behavioral health services. Future research should test technical assistance as an implementation strategy to promote the integration of medical care and behavioral health treatment on a wider scale.
