Base Collaborative Care Model Training
Base Collaborative Care Model Training
An evidence and team-based care approach to integrating behavioral health into primary care
The CoCM Base Training is required for adult and adolescent practices wanting to participate in the CoCM program. During this multi-day, live, virtual base CoCM training course, the learner will gain knowledge and skills to implement a collaborative care model (CoCM) that includes a primary care or pediatric provider, behavioral health care manager, and psychiatric consultant functioning as a team, using a shared care plan, to meet the needs of patients with moderate to severe depression and optional anxiety.
- Discuss the process of the CoCM including patient identification, screening, assessment, care planning, systematic case review, interventions, monitoring, and case closure.
- Review and define the roles and responsibilities of the CoCM treatment team.
- Explain the key role and responsibilities of the Behavioral Health Care Manager (BHCM) including care coordination with other specialties and community agencies.
- Discuss the technologies involved in the CoCM process and their application toward population health and treat-to-target goals.
- Review how to bill CoCM services using the collaborative care codes.
- Review and discuss the skills and principles of motivational interviewing, behavioral activation, and problem solving treatment as it applies to patient engagement and assessing risk and safety.
- Review common anti-depressant and anti-anxiety medications and their relative roles in therapy.
- Review implementation strategies beyond initial training.
It is strongly encouraged that the BHCM complete the Team-Based Care Training & Patient Engagement Training prior to attending this training.
