Integrated care models allow a team of providers to interact in a systematic manner, producing cost-effective and superior outcomes for patients. The collaborative care model (CCoM), one type of integrated care, has emerged as one approach with over 80 randomized controlled trials to support its efficacy. In this model, a behavioral health provider offers evidence-based, brief interventions but also serves as a liaison between the patient, medical providers, and the psychiatric consultant. The team also monitors outcomes through a registry and provides a stepped care approach to adjust interventions collaboratively, as needed. If the barriers to integrated care implementation are surmounted, psychiatrists working as consultants in this model can provide care in an efficient and sustainable manner. This review contains 5 figures, 5 tables, and 48 references. Key Words: barriers to implementation, behavioral health provider, collaborative care, cost-effective, integrated care, psychiatric consultant, cost-effective, registry, stepped care

This chapter describes how the collaborative care model can be used to integrate psychosocial care into cancer care. It also describes the evolution of, and evidence for, the collaborative care approach in cancer services. Collaborative care consists of systematic identification of need, integrated delivery of psychosocial care by care managers with specialist supervision, and the stepping up of care based on the systematic measurement of outcomes. Trials of this approach for the management of depression and pain in patients with cancer have found it to be feasible to deliver, effective in improving outcomes, and cost-effective. The chapter describes how to overcome patient, provider, and institutional challenges in providing psychosocial care in diverse oncology settings. It concludes by proposing practical steps for implementing and sustaining an integrated psychosocial oncology service based on the principles of collaborative care.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: This study seeks to test the feasibility and effectiveness of a brief acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) treatment for chronic pain patients in a primary care clinic METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Primary care patients aged 18 years and older with at least 1 pain condition for 12 weeks or more in duration will be recruited. Patients will be randomized into (a) ACT intervention or (b) control group. Participants in the ACT arm will attend 1 individual visit with an integrated behavioral health provider, followed by 3 weekly ACT classes and a booster class 2 months later. Control group will receive enhanced primary care that includes patient education handouts informed by cognitive behavioral science. Data analysis will include 1-way analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), multiple regression with bootstrapping. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The overall hypothesis is that brief ACT treatment reduces physical disability, improves functioning, and reduces medication misuse in chronic pain patients when delivered by an integrated behavioral health provider in primary care. In addition, it is anticipated that improvements in patient functioning will be mediated by patient change in pain acceptance and patient engagement in value-consistent behaviors. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This pilot study will establish preliminary data about the effectiveness of addressing chronic pain in a generalizable integrated primary care setting. Data will help support a larger trial in the future. Findings have potential to transform the way chronic pain is currently managed in primary care settings, with results that could decrease disability and improve functioning among patients suffering from chronic pain.

This chapter addresses common barriers to care delivery in psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) and limitations of current approaches. Theoretical and practical considerations in delivering PNES care are discussed. These include a stepped-care approach, which offers a strategy for efficiently managing health care resources and has promise in treatment of PNES. Patient-centered care, a general approach to providing health care services in a manner that takes into consideration the patients’ expressed needs, desires, and preferences, is also considered. Examples of care models are presented, including a pediatric model for PNES recently developed and being tested in a Canadian hospital setting. Future directions for the development of care models in PNES are discussed and a list of recommendations is provided.
