摘要
There is little research on behavioral health consultants addressing The Triple Aim goals in a community setting. This study examined the behavioral health consultants' effect on (1) reducing overall patient cost and (2) improving population health by examining psychological screening measures, healthcare utilization, and hospital charges. Results revealed changes in patient charges: emergency department encounters reduce by 8 percent, psychological distress significantly decrease (Patient Health Questionnaire-9, 13.9 to 10.9, p < 0.001; Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7, 12.2 to 9.8, p < 0.001), and reduction in suicidal ideation (p < 0.001) following behavioral health consultant contact. Findings suggest that utilization of behavioral health consultants help health care systems meet The Triple Aim goals.
