Faculty Disclosure
We have not had any relevant financial relationships
during the past 12 months.
Need/Practice Gap & Supporting Resources
Primary care mental health (PCMH) integration has blossomed at
facilities throughout the VA, and is consistent with the
adoption of the Patient Centered Medical Home. However,
the implementation of evidence based protocols for the
collaborative treatment of depression, anxiety, and alcohol
misuse and the consistent use of assessment to evaluate
treatment and program effectiveness (i.e. measurement
based care) has been slower in adoption.
Systematic use of informatics tools to support evidence-based
and measurement-based care can help address this gap.
Objectives
• Describe how the Behavioral Health Lab is consistent with the
principles of the Patient-Centered Medical Home including
improved access, care coordination, team-based care, and
partnering with the patient.
• List the Behavioral Health Lab services and target populations
and how the program can be adapted for changing or
individual clinic needs.
• Describe the importance of measurement-based care with
collaborative care programs for triage, patient education and
symptom monitoring, and program quality improvement.
• Identify the use and features of the BHL software system that
can assist in implementation of a PCMH approach, including
screening of behavioral health problems and ongoing tracking
of care.
Expected Outcome
Consider the benefit of a flexible informatics platform to help
implement evidence based protocols in primary care to
inform both patient treatment outcomes and program
effectiveness.
Patient Centered Medical Home
Replaces episodic care based on illness and patient
complaints with coordinated care and a long term
healing relationship
 The Primary Care Team
• Takes collective responsibility for patient care
• Responsible for providing all the patient’s health care needs
• Arranges for appropriate care with other specialties as needed
 Enhanced Access
 Enhanced communication between
• Patients
• Providers
• Staff
 Continuous Improvement in our work

Referral Management
 Problem: low attendance rates for MH/SA treatment
(30-40%)
 Goal: increase referral adherence in symptomatic
patients with complex behavioral health care needs
Possible psychosis
Drug addiction
Mania
Severe/complicated depression or anxiety
 Uses a motivational interviewing style to provide
clinical support and promote problem-solving skills

and settings
• Programmable decision logic that is exportable
across sites and testable
• Allows capacity to define and follow a cohort of
subjects with prompts for additional clinical actions
(panel management for follow ups)
• Allows integration across mental health conditions
(not just one disorder)
• Creates patient material, including treatment progress
• Provides program level outcome data
• Allows rapid research engagement

BHL as a platform: ex. Developing a
Treatment for PTSD
• Of >17,000 BHL assessments  5,651 (33.2%)
positive for PTSD; PCL-c mean = 49.8 (18.2)
• PTSD positive veterans: more symptomatic
– 66% with depression vs 29% of PTSD negative
– More likely to have psychosis, mania, illicit drug use,
problem drinking, other anxiety disorders
 But 17% of Veterans at Philadelphia referred to
specialty care because they endorsed symptoms
consistent with PTSD had PCL scores < 60.
33
VISN 4 MIRECC
PTSD Brief Treatment
 For lower level PTSD symptoms
 6-8 sessions of about 30 minutes
 1-4 sessions focus on psychoeducation,
behavioral activation, and mindfulness
 Extra sessions for anger management, sleep,
alcohol misuse as needed
 Current pilot; outcomes soon
• Effective treatment?
• Secondary triage?
• Warm-up for evidence based treatment?

Behavioral Health Lab: In Summary
 Increase identification of patients needing behavioral
health services (Oslin et al, 2006)
 Increase engagement in specialty care (Zanjani et al,
2008)
 Improve outcomes for depression and alcohol misuse
(Oslin et al, 2003)
 Platform for new treatments and research
 Allows for efficient staffing and collaboration with PC
 The triage and tracking mechanisms allow for seamless
referral and the ability to reduce waiting times, prioritize
care, and provide administrative support for monitoring.
