APA Creates Forum on Integrated Care

Published Online:7 Jan 2011https://doi.org/10.1176/pn.46.1.psychnews_46_1_022

APA members interested in learning more about integrated care and how it relates to psychiatry are invited to join a new electronic forum created by APA's Council on Healthcare Systems and Financing. “Integrated care” refers to treatment-delivery models in which physicians work together to coordinate their patients' care. Examples of integrated care models are patient-centered medical homes, accountable care organizations, medical neighbors, and health homes.

There are about 50 APA members and staff participating in the electronic forum so far. It is being staffed by Karen Sanders of APA's Office of Healthcare Systems and Financing.

More information is available by contacting Sanders at (703) 907-8590 or .
