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."

Health IT Optimization for Effective PrEP Services

HITEQ Center, June 2023

Molly Rafferty 0 3934

Health centers are increasingly interested in embedding oral Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) programs into primary care, which calls for the embedding of PrEP care processes into electronic health record (EHR) systems. Health centers have had success with automation in HIV testing, and are looking to apply automated algorithms, order sets, and templates to the development of PrEP programs. This resource outlines EHR and health information technology (IT) configurations and tools that support PrEP care processes and provides examples of successful implementation from health centers and primary care settings.

ONC & CDC Integration Framework

ONC & CDC Health IT tool

Molly Rafferty 0 3729

The Integration Framework, developed by Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), provides guidance to health care systems, states, and health information technology (IT) vendors to support successful project execution, management and communications for Health IT integrations. This Framework is based on the project’s learnings from Prescription Drug Monitoring Program-Electronic Health Record (PDMP-EHR) Integration and electronic Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Implementation. The intended audience for this Framework includes health care systems preparing to integrate their EHR with the state PDMP, as well as PDMP administrators interested in providing PDMP-EHR integrations to health care systems in their state. The learnings from this project may also be useful to organizations undertaking other Health IT integrations. This Framework is supplemented by the PDMP-EHR Integration Toolkit that provides detailed guidance and templates for specific phases of integration.

PCMH Self-Assessment Tool (2014 Standards)

With health IT supports for implementation

HITEQ Center 0 22623

This tool is for use by health centers interested in assessing their readiness for Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) recognition by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) under the 2014 Standards. It can be used by first time users as well as those seeking a renewal. The tool walks organizations through the requirements for each of the standards, elements, and factors for NCQA PCMH recognition by providing a way of tracking what they currently have in place and what they are missing, a list of supporting materials to submit to NCQA, as well as Health IT tools that can support both the implementation of the required factors as well as the generation of the documents/reports needed for submission.
