Poster Abstract

• In Rowan Family Medicine (Sewell, NJ), an interprofessional team of medical and clinical psychology professionals and trainees collaborate to investigate the integration of behavioral health in patients’ primary care visits.

• We screen patients for PTSD symptoms using the DSM CAPS-5 during their primary care visits

• The PTSD Coach app is then encouraged to use 3x a day

• By making mental health care more accessible to patients, we strive to help meet the increased demand and alleviate the strain our healthcare system is currently experiencing.

• The team composed of Medicine and Clinical Psychology allows students to gain invaluable experience in interdisciplinary collaboration

• Overall, patients and providers feel satisfied and positively receive this Integrated Behavioral Health Model
