Integrated Primary Behavioral Health Care Services
Your mind is connected to the rest of your body… so why would you treat it separately?
CarePlus has a strong belief in the integration of mental and primary care. Primary Care Services provides adults enrolled in other CarePlus services an embedded primary care program with the opportunity to treat acute health conditions and practice preventative health and care coordination with specialty providers.
Program Goals: To improve the physical well-being of consumers with serious mental illness by providing primary care services in an embedded practice, this program includes:
- Full-service primary care office
- Assessment of physical health needs
- Advocacy of the relationship between physical and mental health care needs
