Abbreviations: BHC, behavioral health clinician; CMHC, Community Mental Health Center; FQHC, Federally Qualified Health Center; FTE, full-time equivalent; PCC, primary care clinician.
Practices are grouped by staffing, scheduling, and approach to integrated care. Numbering corresponds with other articles in this supplement.²³
BHC is defined as the behavioral health clinicians who worked directly or most closely with the PCC. It does not include traditional mental health therapists working in a practice in the same building yet operating separately from primary care.
↵a BHCs generally saw patients for brief (15-to-30-min) or long (50-min) encounters.
↵b BHC appointments could be prescheduled back to back across the day or open and flexible to accommodate emerging patient needs.
↵c The approach used to transition patients between the PCC and the BHC. All practices used a referral pathway to access traditional mental health services.
