Integrating Mental Health Care into Primary Care

Calmscient provides the infrastructure for integrated behavioral health care.

Our innovative, mobile and cloud-based behavioral health platform automatically integrates behavioral health into any primary care practice.

Integrated behavioral health care is necessary in primary care because it recognizes the vital conncection between mental and physical well-being. By combining behavioral health care services with primary care, individuals receive holistic, accessible, and timely care. Integration allows for early intervention, reducing the impact of mental health conditions. Coordinated treatment plans improve outcomes and patient satisfaction. Integration reduces the stigma often associated with behavioral health by normalizing mental health conversations and encouraging patients to seek help. It optimizes resource utilization, resulting in much more cost-effective healthcare.

 

Overall, integrated behavioral health care in primary care ensures comprehensive, patient-centered support that enhances the overall health and well-being of patients.

Core Features of the Calmscient Platform

A mobile app (iOS and Android) providing patients with education on mental health issues, self-help activities geared toward improving mental health, and regular mental health screening.

An administrative portal allowing primary care providers to track the progress and overall well-being of patients as they use the Calmscient mobile app.   The portal also provides “at-risk” alerts triggered by pre-defined indicators associated with patient activity in the app.

Seamless integration between the Calmscient mobile app, Admin Portal and the practice’s Electronic Health Record (EHR) and Practice Management (PM) system.   This allows providers to access Calmscient data directly from the patient’s clinical record.

Calmscient Benefits for Health Systems

The Calmscient platform reinforces the vital connection between mental and physical well-being.   Calmscient’s regular screenings, health tracking and monitoring, and integration with Electronic Health Record systems help establish patient health baselines and detect deviations.

Continual data collection by the Calmscient system provides clinicians with the ability to gain key insights into the ongoing well-being of their patients, helping them upgrade the quality of the health care services they provide.
Calmscient monitoring tools allow providers to regularly track the mental health of their patients, allowing them to detect issues before they progress, thus reducing the potential development of crisis situations.
Calmscient’s daily patient engagement system and self-guided action plans improve the efficacy of treatment outcomes and patient care.
Individuals living in rural areas experience significant disparities in mental health outcomes even though the prevalence of mental illness in rural and metropolitan areas is similar.  Calmscient optimizes health care for patients living in areas where there is reduced access to trained mental health providers and care coordination.
Extensive patient screening and remote patient engagement in the Calmscient system leads to decreases in the cost of care and increases in patient care satisfaction.
