SUMMARY:Maternal Mental Health: A National Landscape Review
DESCRIPTION:Maternal mental health disorders affect up to one in five women during pregnancy and the postpartum period and are associated with significant consequences for mothers\, infants\, and families. Despite growing awareness and evidence-based screening recommendations\, substantial gaps remain in screening\, treatment access\, workforce capacity\, quality measurement\, and reimbursement. This session will provide a national overview of the maternal mental health landscape\, including current prevalence\, clinical recommendations\, quality measures\, insurance coverage trends\, and emerging federal and state policy initiatives. Participants will learn about barriers facing providers and patients\, recent progress in expanding screening and treatment resources\, and opportunities to improve outcomes through policy\, payment reform\, and quality improvement efforts. The session will also highlight state-level innovations and national strategies aimed at strengthening maternal mental health systems of care. \nSpeaker: Joy Burkhard\, MBA \nJoy Burkhard\, MBA is the founder and Executive Director of the Policy Center for Maternal Mental Health – a policy and practice change non profit think tank\, which has been named a ‘field catalyst’ by the Bridgespan Group.

She also spent nearly 25 years working for a fortune 15 health insurance company\, where she gained insights and ideas about how to transform the American health system.

SUMMARY:Integrated Behavioral Health: Reflections from a 10-Year Implementation
DESCRIPTION:Listen to a conversation between the psychologist and physician champion who implemented Integrated Behavioral Health in a pilot study and then throughout the Kansas City Metro in a fully-capitated advanced primary care practice coupled with an insurance product.  Review core concepts and the rationale of the Primary Care Behavioral Health model.  Successful hiring and barriers to implementation are discussed by the professionals who led this effort together. \nSpeakers: Debra McQueeney\, Ph.D.\, Dr. Rebecca Gernon \nDebra McQueeney\, Ph.D.\, pioneered the integration of behavioral health in the Kansas City area\, beginning with a pilot study of the PCBH model in a large primary care practice. The clinical and financial effectiveness of this program was published\, and subsequently adopted in nine primary care offices across Kansas City (Spira Care). \nDr. McQueeney has served patients in multiple settings ranging from the VA Hospital System to private practice in her 40 years of practicing.  She is an expert in the treatment of anxiety\, relational distress and life transitions.  She is particularly attentive to the intersection of physical and mental health. \nShe is currently engaged as a provider for Sailor Health\, an organization committed to serving an older population.   \nShe serves on the boards of Prairie Sky Counseling Center in Kansas City and the Epworth Church Association in Ludington\, Michigan\, where she spends her summers. \n  \nDr. Rebecca Gernon is a board-certified Family Medicine physician who completed a Master’s in Public Health @ Boston University prior to entering medical school at the University of Kansas.  She has practiced Family Medicine in academic\, community\, and managed care settings since finishing her residency in 2001 with a clinical focus on integrating behavioral health into the practice of primary care. Following a successful integrated primary care pilot as the “physician champion” she pivoted towards the practice of population health/managed care as Medical Director in the Blues\, first as a reviewing clinician and later as the chief clinical leader of a fully-capitated advanced primary care practice integrated with an insurance product in the Kansas City Metro. She is now working at another Blues plan\, where she continues learning the business of healthcare from the perspective of a clinical appeals specialist catching all healthcare stakeholders in the act of doing good on a daily basis.   \n  \nRegister Here
