Promoting the Integration of Primary and Behavioral Health Care: Collaborative Care Model

The purpose of this program is to support implementation of the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM). The CoCM is an evidence-based, integrated care approach that addresses mental and substance use conditions in primary care settings. Care is provided by a primary care team and includes a case manager, consulting psychiatrist, and other mental health professionals. Recipients will be expected to work with at least three primary care practices to develop the staffing and systems necessary to implement the CoCM.
