Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Individuals with serious mental illness experience excess mortality related to general medical comorbidities. Reverse-integrated and reverse-colocated models of care have been proposed as a system-level solution. Such models integrate primary care services within behavioral health settings. Further understanding of consumer perspectives on these models is needed to ensure that models adequately engage consumers on the basis of their expressed needs. This qualitative study examined the perspectives of English- and Spanish-speaking individuals with serious mental illness on their current experience with the management of their medical care and on a hypothetical reverse-colocated care model. METHODS: Semistructured interviews were conducted in a purposive sample of 30 individuals with serious mental illness recruited from two outpatient mental health clinics affiliated with a comprehensive community-based program. The interview assessed the participant's current experience with the management of their health care, followed by a vignette describing a reverse--colocated care model and questions to elicit the participant's reaction to the vignette. An inductive thematic analysis was employed. RESULTS: Consumers expressed positive views of the potential for working with trusted staff, increased communication, and access to care through reverse colocation. Reflections on current health management experience were notable for an emphasis on self-efficacy and receipt of support for self-management strategies from mental health clinicians. CONCLUSIONS: Study findings add to prior literature indicating support for assistance with management of general medical health in the mental health setting among individuals with serious mental illness. Key themes similar to those in previous studies generate hypotheses for further evaluation.
