Behavioral Health Integration: Preparation for Practice Staff
– Clinical/practice staff agree on role – Identify Clinic Champion– Identify Introductions & Training– Include support staff, billing, clinical
& front desk–Define daily workspace, EMR,
training needs, transition time
Behavioral Health Integration: Agreements for Services– Describe model– Describe staff role/job descrip.– Describe funding & Billing–Worksite, equipment, etc.– Hiring & Supervision–Monitoring, Evaluation, &
Communication– Exchange of Information– EMR sytemsContract for Services
Lesson Learned:Billing is confusing- talk with people that have been through it, confer with State, test it, keep learning.
Behavioral Health Integration: Tackling Billing Issues– Differentiate Mental Health and
Behavioral Health–Be clear about diagnosis type–Warm-hand off not billable on
same visit as medical (typically)–All staff have to understand and
document.–Different Insurances= Different
pay
Behavioral Health Integration: Billing Challenges– Different EMRs
–Different terminology
–Different expectations
–Diagnosis & Coding
Behavioral Health Integration: Identify/Recruit/Hire Staff– Recruitment/Ads Describe Role
