This grey literature reference is included in the Academy�s Literature Collection in keeping with our mission to gather all sources of information on integration. Grey literature is comprised of materials that are not made available through traditional publishing avenues. Often, the information from unpublished resources can be limited and the risk of bias cannot be determined.

In recent years, the subject of integrated healthcare, including the integration of behavioral health services into primary care, within the healthcare field has been increasingly of interest to researchers, providers, and policy makers. However, little is known about the experiences of providers within integrated care and the impact of these experiences on inter-professional relationships and collaboration. The researchers aimed to explore differences in providers' perspectives, including inter-professional collaboration and overall job satisfaction, by provider type and level of integration. The current study uses a mixed method exploratory approach, gathering both qualitative and quantitative data to investigate the perspectives of providers (both psychologists and physicians) on their work together. This study included 30 psychologists and 30 primary care physicians from three levels of healthcare integration (traditional/coordinated, co-located, and integrated). As hypothesized, results indicated that providers in integrated settings were the most satisfied with their collaboration with other providers. Furthermore, the providers' narratives revealed promising insights which contribute to a broader understanding of how to improve the relationships between psychologists and primary care physicians in integrated healthcare and other settings.

Recent literature, public policy, and funding opportunities call attention to the need for better increased integration of health and mental health care services in primary care settings so as to best meet the needs of children and families. There are many benefits to such integration, but pediatric primary care providers (PCPs) face multiple barriers to identifying and managing patients with mental health difficulties. One way to address this problem is through the integration of psychologists into primary care settings who can collaborate with PCPs to provide integrated behavioral health care to youth and families. However, there are challenges to collaboration, which include differences in training, professional cultures, and expectations held by professionals from various disciplines. Effective communication is a key component in supporting interprofessional collaboration between primary care providers and psychologists working in primary care settings. This paper reviews aspects of pediatric medicine culture, critical components of communication, and strategies to improve communication. Three case examples are presented in which some of these challenges have been successfully addressed. Implications and future directions are discussed.
