Behavioral Health Home Plus Comprehensive model designed by Community Care Behavioral Health, county and consumer stakeholder groups. Model incorporates wellness nurse, wellness coach, stratified risk registry, self management tool kits, learning collaborative, fidelity tool. Model is spread using the IHI’s Break Through Learning Collaborative Model of Awarded 2016 Recognition of Excellence in Wellness in SAMHSA’s Program to Achieve Wellness. The core agency activities include: Managing the risk stratified registry provided by Community Care. Conducting a comprehensive health assessment with each person identified with “high needs” on the registry. Addressing lapses in clinical care, preventive screening, and history of significant traumatic stress exposure contributing to health concerns. Establishing a reciprocal and collaborative relationship with primary care and specialty medical providers. Engaging people in recovery in ongoing wellness coaching
Why have behavioral health homes? As a group, individuals with SMI have high rates of premature death, dying as much as 15 to 25 years younger than the general population largely due to modifiable lifestyle choices. Key contributors: Modifiable lifestyle choices and behaviors Negative metabolic effects of atypical antipsychotic medication higher rates of undiagnosed, untreated, or poorly treated medical illnesses Difficulties obtaining routine preventive and primary care. The existing behavioral health system can be enhanced to support good health outcomes for individuals with SMI/SUD
What’s the ultimate goal? Help individuals with SMI take a more active role in their own health and health care Build provider capacity to sustain and spread the Behavioral Health Home model with high quality
The Learning Collaborative Support for successful implementation of the Behavioral Health Home Model across the state Create an agency-wide culture of wellness Learning Collaborative process Build on Milestones (Detailed steps for successful implementation) PDSA Cycles (Process for quality improvement) Monitor outcome and process aims Learn from each other

Challenges Staff felt overwhelmed at the start of the LC Understand the mission of the collaboration Define roles for members on the QIT Hard to collect and organize data and information over multiple sites Collaboration with physical health providers takes work Wellness is sometimes difficult to promote in a crisis driven community Fragmented efforts don’t work
Positive Feedback & Observations Learning the value of the process is the most important benefit of the LC The LC is good for moving teams from day to day activities to quality improvement visionaries The PDSA provides a helpful structure and helps to identify needs Staff appreciated the value of collaboration with physical health providers and communicating with physical health providers got easier over time. “We learned better ways to communicate with physical health providers” Routine meetings of the QIT are important (Drill large tasks down into small, actionable steps) LC resulted in a better understanding of the relationship between physical and behavioral health Hot button issues can be tied back to psychotropic medications and risk which link back to the PCP and why monitoring is important Get buy-in from staff by talking about the goals of the effort Share data and progress with staff Link to the PCP for diagnoses Attend the PCP visit; learn about inhalers, insulin injections, etc Collaboration between team members is important Collaboration with the local clinic is helpful If you need physical health information, it’s better to just show up rather than make an appointment Maintain the strategies that are working Ask the physical health provider for a little bit of information just to open the lines of communication, ex, date of last physical Having a team member on the QIT is helpful The ‘why’ is important when participating in a LC
Summary Engagement and participation in the Behavioral Health Homes is high Teams are completing Milestones at the same rate and most activities are completed successfully Most agencies have met goal on Process Aims Progress is being made toward meeting our Outcome Aims Melody
