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."

Take some time to read through some of the articles on this page and then fill out the submission form on the right and you will be rewarded with a Health Center Incredible Behavioral Health Integrator badge! This is an official badge that is submitted by the HITEQ Center as a proof of completion to the blockchain.

Free CME Training with Three Tracks

Healthcare Data Analytics, Population Health, and Value-based Care

The three certificate trainings available include multiple courses that will prepare staff to transition to value-based care.  This training will help you and your organization understand healthcare transformation in a practical, usable way - why it’s important; how it will impact job roles, workflows, care delivery, and the financial considerations of healthcare.  Trainings will enhance skill sets to enable you or your staff to work more efficiently, knowledgeably and hopefully, with less stress. Topics cover introductory and advanced levels – allowing you to choose how in-depth you would like to go into a topic or knowledge set. 


The training will enable you to build teams in your organization.  By learning critical topics like data analytics, value-based care and population health concepts, workers will be more apt to appreciate and participate in changing activities and thrive due to healthcare reform, using technology more effectively and accurately, increasing care coordination, redesigning workflows, and more.


Enrollment is open and courses are running through June 2017. The amount of training seats is limited. The courses will be offered until those seats are filled.  The training is free, but to receive CME a $45 fee is required.

Focus: PHI

Patient privacy and confidentiality form a crucial component of the patient-doctor treatment relationship, particularly when seeking treatment for mental health or substance use disorders. Multiple federal privacy laws, in addition to state laws, provide privacy protections for mental health and substance use disorder treatment records, while permitting communication of these records to other healthcare providers, patients’ families, and others.
