The goal of this conference was to assist practitioners, researchers, administrators, and decision makers to understand the practical issues surrounding how to integrate behavioral health care with medical surgical health care. The context of this conference is the health care crisis facing the United States. Costs are escalating at multiples of the rate of general inflation. The managed care model is sick or dying. 40 million Americans are uninsured. The rate of medical errors is unacceptably high. The population is aging and the health care needs represented by the elderly have increased. Technological advances often bring higher costs. What can be done? This book is an attempt to illustrate the trend toward addressing these problems by integrating care. One of the key advantages to integrated care is that it can reduce demand for health care by providing patients with the health care they actually need. There is significant clinical research and clinical experience all pointing to one fact: many patients (perhaps even a majority) receiving traditional primary care or specialty care medicine also need behavioral care.
