Existing Services
Hub & Spoke Behavioral Health Model – Provider-to-Provider Psychiatric Consultation
Bring psychiatric expertise directly into your practice – without referring patients away. The Hub & Spoke model is designed to help primary care providers expand access to mild-to-moderate behavioral health care while keeping patients in the communities they trust. By connecting your practice to a centralized psychiatric “Hub,” you gain real-time access to specialty support, implementation guidance, and population-level tools – so you can confidently deliver integrated behavioral health care.
Behavioral Health Collaborative
The UPHCS Behavioral Health Collaborative establishes a quality behavioral health continuum of care or the region that is cohesive and integrated, easy to access from any geographic location and available close to home for all UP residents.
Services Under Development
Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) Patient Registry
The registry will track clinical outcomes and episodes of care across the participating patient populations, tracks patient engagement and defines patient treatment status across the clinical caseload, prompts measurement-based treatment to target (including appointment and referral reminders), facilitates efficient, systematic psychiatric caseload review and monitoring of individual patient progress, has patient-level reporting capability (including contact attempts, medications, and PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores), and is securely accessible by partnering CoCM psychiatric consultants.
