The Collaborative Care Model is an evidence-based model of integrated mental health in primary care settings that shows clear and significant effectiveness for the treatment of common mental health disorders (depression, anxiety, and PTSD). Implementation of the model is now occurring across the country to answer the need for increased access to mental health treatment for specific populations.
The below learning modules include resources and guidance on how the CoCM can be used to treat specific populations. Practices have successfully adapted and implement the CoCM to deliver mental health care to the following special patient populations:
