概要
病院の救急部門(ED)は、物質使用障害(SUD)や精神疾患(MI)を持つ人々に対応する最前線にいます。 SUDとMIの患者は、EDの利用率と入院率が高い可能性が高いため、病院のEDは治療へのアクセスを増やすための理想的な環境です。
The Behavioral Health in ER effort, or Behavioral Health Pilot Project (BHPP), aims to expand on the efforts of the California Bridge Program, which was first initiated under DHCS’ Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) Expansion Project. The purpose of the BHPP is to further expand development of ED-based behavioral health services in California’s general acute care hospitals. The California State Legislature appropriated $20 million to DHCS to integrate trained behavioral health counselors in EDs and build capacity for improved treatment of SUD and co-occurring MI.
In February 2020, DHCS released a Request for Application available to all general acute care hospitals. In September 2020, DHCS awarded up to $100,000 each to more than 200 general acute care hospitals to be expended through June 30, 2022. Awarded hospitals will be reporting several data metrics to DHCS, including: the number of people with a behavioral health diagnosis seen by month in the ED by the funded behavioral health counselor; the number of people provided MAT in the ED by month; and number of individuals receiving referrals by month to ongoing care at MAT capable clinics, mental health services, residential treatment, and other support services.
