Integrated Behavioral Health Models

Integrated Behavioral Health Models combine mental health care with general medical services within a single setting, aiming to provide comprehensive support for patients. By collaborating across disciplines, these models improve communication, streamline treatment, and address both physical and mental health needs simultaneously. This approach enhances access to care, reduces stigma, and often leads to better health outcomes because it treats the whole person, not just individual symptoms. Overall, it fosters a more coordinated, patient-centered system that recognizes the interconnectedness of mental and physical health.
