Tale of 8 Cities Continued:
Preliminary Results from Evaluating Integrated Behavioral Health
#MHMSiTexas
The integrated behavioral health model incorporates enhanced primary and behavioral care, medication therapy management, community-based lifestyle programs, and teams of community health workers to conduct home visits. The key to integration is ongoing, systematic communication between hospital, clinic, mental health case managers, and the team of community health workers who provide services to participants in their homes and at community based educational sessions.

Through the Si Texas project, Tropical Texas Behavioral Health is implementing a Reverse Co-location Integrated Behavioral Health Model.
The approach is called “reverse co-location” as it is more common to integrate mental health providers into a primary care setting than to integrate primary care into a mental health setting.
Primary care services are delivered to clients with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI) from a primary care clinic co-located within the behavioral health clinic.
Reverse Co-location

Disease Management Model
• Preventive Care Management Unit is implemented in 2 outpatient Clinics [primary health and behavioral – mental health and substance abuse]
• Adapt elements of the evidence based DCM with assistance from network providers and TAMIU research team.
• DCM will allow us to increase access, fast track referrals, improve compliance, educate the population and further integrate behavioral health into the medical disease management processes.

• Entire consumer population for TRIP for Salud y Vida has a severe mental illness (SMI) diagnosis (e.g., severe depression, bipolar or schizophrenia).
The IBH component of the TRIP for Salud y Vida model includes two key collaborative care elements: (1) co-located mental and primary health services with a case manager to link patients and
track follow-up and (2) patient education provided by community health workers.
#MHMSiTexasMethods
• Non-randomized quasi-experimental design (QED)
• 5 clinic sites (3 intervention
and 2 comparison)
• Enrollment of 500 consumers (250 per study arm)
• Shared measurements (Blood pressure, Body Mass Index (BMI), HbA1c), depression (using the Patient Health Questionnaire [PHQ-9]) and quality of life (using the Duke Health Profile)
