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."

HITEQ Highlights Webinar: Using Data to Manage Population Health Under Risk Based Contracts

HITEQ Highlights

With value-based care, providers are increasingly being asked to take on more accountability, and in some cases financial risk, for cost and quality outcomes for a defined population. This webinar aimed to help health center leadership assess whether they are investing sufficiently in the clinical and administrative infrastructure and analytics to succeed under risk-based payment.  The session addressed three key questions: 1) What data do I need and how do I get it? 2) What do I do with the data once I have it? and 3) How do I apply what I learn from the data to manage quality and costs?  The session featured health centers engaging successfully in risk-based contracts using a robust population health management system.

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.
