AB - Integrated healthcare models combining behavioral and primary care provide solutions for vulnerable pediatric populations, especially youth in foster care, facing disproportionately high rates of chronic conditions and mental health issues. This review synthesizes current literature to assess the impact of integrated care on health outcomes for youth in foster care. Findings suggest integrated care can reduce healthcare barriers, improve coordination, and improve health outcomes for these youth. However, literature gaps indicate a need for more research. Clinical practice implications include adopting coordinated, multidisciplinary care. Future research should standardize definitions and approaches to support the sustainability of these care models.
