Expanding Pediatric Integrated Behavioral Health Capacity – Final Meeting

  • 11 Dec 2024

This month on December 3rd, from 8-9am, CTC-RI, in partnership with Foundation for Integrated Care (FIC) had our final meeting for the Expanding Pediatric Integrated Behavioral Health (IBH) Capacity project. This meeting gave an overview and developments for FIC, pre and post data from each of the participating practices, and overview of their quality improvement projects. Additionally, each practice presented reflections focused on the biggest positive changes as a result of the project, challenges with IBH, plans for the future, and a patient success story that illustrated the benefits of IBH. 

We thank FIC members Kristin David, PsyD, Executive Director, and Srah Ferszt, LICSW, Director for Program Development for sharing FIC’s overview and future. Additionally, we thank Liz Cantor, PhD, Pediatric IBH Practice Facilitator, for presenting the PDSAs, and for each of our participating practices for sharing their experiences: Barrington Pediatrics, NRI Pediatrics, and P.R.I.M.A. Pediatrics.  

A call for applications for cohort 2 of this project will be announced in early 2025. Please stay tuned for more details.
