However, CSC teams are resource-intensive, motivating the development of a hybrid delivery approach where community mental health centers (CMHCs) collaborate with an academic medical center to deliver a mix of in-person and virtual services. To inform the development of this hybrid approach, a needs assessment was conducted, evaluating the existing capacity of Ohio CMHCs to treat FEP and identifying barriers to expanded use of telemental health. CMHC administrators throughout Ohio whose agencies primarily provide mental health services were surveyed using a novel instrument. A concurrent mixed methods approach combined multivariable analysis of cross-sectional survey data with thematic coding of responses to open-ended questions. The 56 responding CMHCs on average offered 10.96 of 17 services associated with CSC for FEP. Agency size was positively associated with number of service offerings, but rurality was not. Most agencies perceived gaps in their care for patients with FEP, particularly rural CMHCs. 75% believed that telemental health service expansion would benefit patients. Thematic analysis revealed three success factors for expanded telemental health usage: adapting care to virtual assessment, ensuring patient access, and adjusting workflows for virtual delivery. Responding CMHCs generally agreed that care for individuals with FEP could be improved and saw potential in expanded use of virtual services. Hybrid models may represent a valuable opportunity to overcome conventional barriers to CSC availability, but their development must account for current CMHC resource infrastructure and workflows.</p>","PeriodicalId":7195,"journal":{"name":"Administration and Policy in Mental Health and Mental Health Services Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143735619","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A proposed solution is to have primary care providers respond to patients' behavioral health challenges directly. The current study describes the adaptation and evaluation process of Precision Behavioral Health (PBH), a digital-first behavioral health care model with provider-referral to an ecosystem of digital interventions. User-centered design strategies used to adapt the PBH program included applying process to system-level behaviors, defining target users and their needs, defining workflows, rapid prototyping cycles, and a complimentary mixed-methods iterative development phase with a pilot trial. Twenty-one primary care providers, 164 medical assistants and check out staff, and 45 nursing staff were trained as part of the pilot. The RE-AIM implementation framework was used for evaluation. Fourteen primary care providers participated in a semi-structured interview to provide feedback on their experience. The adapted PBH program reached 39.54% of primary care patients seen by the pilot providers during the timeframe. Providers offered PBH to 76.63% of the patients reached, and 26.10% accepted the PBH referral. Out of the accepted patients, 78.15% registered, 73.95% activated their digital intervention, and 59.09% showed clinical improvement in outcomes. Nineteen (90.48%) pilot providers adopted PBH and referred a median of 2 patients each week. Medical assistants/check out staff scheduled 5% of digital care navigator appointments and 84.03% of provider follow up appointments. Primary care providers used the program's clinical decision support tool to aid their discussion and referral process with 95.33% of patients that accepted PBH and selected one of the top 3 recommended tools 95% of the time. Qualitative results identified six broad content categories: Overall PBH referral experience, PBH training, PBH eligibility flag, PBH follow-up appointment workflow, impacts of PBH program on providers, and future modifications. Providers described a positive experience with PBH elements, low burden, positive impact on their jobs, and PBH enhancing treatment options for their patients. Primary care providers identified several adaptations, such as expanding PBH to other types of visits (e.g., sick visits), and optimizing workflow for check-out staff when booking follow-up appointments. Primary care providers are willing and able to successfully refer patients to behavioral health digital interventions with minimal training time for onboarding. Patients referred through primary care demonstrate high acceptance rates, and comparable rates of improvement to those that are referred by licensed behavioral health providers. The results have the potential to impact public health, by increasing behavioral health access for patients without adding burden to providers, and providing healthcare organizations an alternative pathway to address increasing needs without havin","PeriodicalId":7195,"journal":{"name":"Administration and Policy in Mental Health and Mental Health Services Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143522485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Primary quantitative and qualitative data on community impact were gathered from agency leads (N = 10), partnership members (N = 136), and community members (N = 42). A convergent sequential mixed methods design (qual → QUAN → qual) was selected to provide both breadth and depth of understanding about the impact of community capacity-building from multiple perspectives.

As a result, youth have increasingly experienced treatment and placement delays that have resulted in lengthy psychiatric boarding episodes and improper placements in hotels and child welfare offices. This study employed community-based system dynamics and group model-building methods to understand the complex factors and processes that have contributed to treatment access barriers and placement delays for this population. Results suggest that increases in the prevalence of complex mental health needs among children, insufficient preventative and screening resources, low capacity and quality in psychiatric residential treatment facilities, workforce shortages, and ineffective assessment and referral processes exacerbate treatment delays and negatively affect child well-being.

All records for individuals who have experienced trauma with an index admission of over 72 h between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019 were included (N = 11,043). Logistic regression using generalized equation estimation was used to assess the association between demographic and clinical characteristics, substance use, social relationships, staff dynamics, and control interventions with the outcome of early leaves. In the final model, alcohol (OR: 1.83, 95% CI: 1.27-2.64), other substances (OR: 2.15, 95% CI: 1.34-3.46), and poly substance use (OR: 2.46, 95% CI: 1.82-3.31) all increased the odds of early leaves after considering possible facility effects, and after adjusting for other demographic and clinical factors. Being older, employed, and having mood disorders reduced odds of early leaves. Early leaves are important within treatment planning, particularly in relation to addressing complex traumas.

Therefore, this qualitative study aims to describe how stakeholders approach these challenges when combining different types of expertise to provide integrated care for youth at-risk. In total, 28 in-depth interviews were conducted with stakeholders working in various organizations or municipalities for youth at-risk in The Netherlands. Transcripts were analyzed through reflexive thematic analysis. Reflections from a youth representative were also incorporated. Results reveal challenges at four levels: youth and family, professional, organization, and system. At each level, challenges arise in addressing the exceptional needs and problems of youth at-risk, collaborating with multiple stakeholders, reluctance to apply or involve expertise, and finding sufficient resources to combine expertise. Professionals, organizations, and municipalities approach these challenges with a backward or forward approach: either they accept the situation, focus on their own expertise, leave responsibility to others; or they force their expertise on others, or seek collaboration to combine expertise. Overall, combining different types of expertise to provide integrated care to youth at-risk can be seen as an expertise in itself, and necessitates reflection, awareness, and careful consideration from all stakeholders.</p>","PeriodicalId":7195,"journal":{"name":"Administration and Policy in Mental Health and Mental Health Services Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143021777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
