Collaborative Care is a healthcare philosophy and movement that has many names, models, and definitions. Common derivatives of the name collaborative care include: "Integrated Care", "Primary Care Behavioral Health", and "Shared Care".
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) published an overview of many different models and the research that supports them [1]. The key features of Collaborative Care models are:
-Integration of mental health professionals in primary care medical settings
-Close collaboration between mental health and medical/nursing providers
-Focus on treating the whole person and whole family.
