Behavioral health integration (BHI), or the integrated delivery of both behavioral and physical health care, is essential to reaching more individuals who need behavioral health treatment and solving the nation’s growing behavioral health crisis. Appropriately applied, the incorporation of virtual care, among other digital tools, presents a unique opportunity to enhance the effectiveness and accelerate the adoption of BHI.
In this interactive session, learn more about the opportunities and challenges with incorporating technology to advance more coordinated and equitable behavioral health care. You’ll also hear about the practical solutions stakeholders across the health care ecosystem can pursue to advance digitally-enabled BHI. Lastly, the session will feature experts from Penn Medicine and the Department of Veteran Affairs who will discuss their BHI models, how digital tools have been incorporated, and the comprehensive value it has generated.
