HITEQ Health Center Behavioral Health Integrator Badge
Health centers are increasing the integration of behavioral health in primary care, spurred by an increased focus on whole person care and additional funding. Effective use of health IT in conjunction with patient privacy and confidentiality is imperative to support behavioral health.

According to the Office of the National Coordinator, "Health information technology can help to improve behavioral health care and can further enable care coordination and integration, increase information sharing, and support prevention, treatment, and recovery activities. Access to and the exchange and use of behavioral health information as part of routine care can help to improve continuity in care services and support efforts toward achieving an interoperable health care system across the continuum."

For over a decade, community health centers across the country have partnered with local community colleges to pursue competitive training grants.  These grants allow them to fill critical skills gaps by providing training to their current workforce.  While colleges have been primarily focused on more traditional roles, such as nursing and medical assisting, health centers could ask colleges for help with skills gaps in health information technology and quality improvement jobs.
