Name
J13 - Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) Model: Implementation and Preliminary Impact of Integrated Family Medicine Residency Clinics Serving in the Rio Grande Valley
Description

PCBH can be defined as a team-based primary care approach to managing behavioral health problems and biopsychosocial-influenced health conditions. The model's main goal is to enhance the primary care team's ability to manage and treat such conditions, with resulting improvements in primary care services for the entire clinic population. For the RGV, a PCBH focused delivery system (clinical and educational), in which PCPs and BHCs are trained to provide routine, population-based, biopsychosocial care in the RGV, can increase parity for mental health access, minimize toxic effects of culturally bound stigma, reduce fragmentation of physical-mental health and stave off the effect of an expanding OUD crisis for a majority Latino population. A PCBH-ready workforce is a regional solution to reduce health disparities and promote culturally sensitive solutions to whole-person care.
