BMC Press Release – JAMA Network Open

New research suggests integrating behavioral health services in pediatric primary care can reduce symptoms
The work offers hope for addressing the mental health crisis among children and adolescents.

Research led by the Transforming and Expanding Access to Mental Health Care Universally in Pediatrics (TEAM UP) Scaling and Sustainability Center of Boston Medical Center (BMC) finds that children who receive behavioral health services delivered through the TEAM UP Model™ of integrated behavioral health care have fewer behavioral health symptoms. The findings, published recently in JAMA Network Open, offer new hope for addressing the children’s mental health crisis.

The TEAM UP Center at Boston Medical Center (BMC) is proud to announce the selection of its latest cohort of the TEAM UP model implementation initiative. Chosen through a highly competitive process, TEAM UP has selected six pediatric/family practices from across Massachusetts that have demonstrated commitment to building sustainable, team-based behavioral health integration in pediatric primary care.
