    Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) Pilot

    The Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) uses a team-based approach to deliver evidence-based care for children and adolescents with behavioral health needs in the primary care environment. It is shown to improve access, clinical outcomes, and patient satisfaction at a return on investment of 6:1. Our analysis shows this to be a sustainable path to improving access to care in NH, but implementation challenges have impeded uptake. We can help! Partner with us for FREE access to: 

    • Training in CoCM and related practices for all identified team members
    • Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist 1 hr/wk to provide caseload review 
    • Registry tool to track care and outcomes for enrolled population 
    • Technical assistance to support workflow development, change management, and reimbursement. Examples might include development of: 
      • Patient welcome/enrollment packet including script for determining insurance coverage
      • Algorithm for selecting screeners and treatment monitoring tools 
      • Inclusion and exclusion criteria  
      • Billing Guide  
      • Behavioral Health Care manager training guide 
    • Data analysis and evaluation to understand the impact of CoCM on:
      • Care quality and outcomes 
      • Patient satisfaction 
      • Provider satisfaction 
      • Cost 

    We are seeking a pediatric primary care site partner to help us further disseminate Collaborative Care in NH. Partners must employ a designated individual to serve as behavioral health care manager (min. requirement of bachelor’s degree in health-related field such as social work, nursing, psychology). The project will run through September 2026. Click here for more information about how to get involved in the pilot.

    **This page will be updated as implementation materials are developed for public use. **
