Greetings,

I am hoping to network with other Health Integration Specialists,
providing behavioral health services in a medical care setting.  I have
been in this setting for the past 4 years.  We started with 4 positions
and once the MH incentives stopped, and the Medical agency was required
to pay for the service, it was reduced to 1 position.  We  have been
billing for the past 2 years the 96150-96151 codes.  We are looking for
ways to improve the program by checking with others who are doing
similar work.  Some questions are: How is your agency billing if at all?
Are they getting reimbursed for services?  Does anyone use the disease
model for services?  Productivity measures--Do you have specific
expectations?  What were they when you started vs. now?

I believe in the value of the service provided and would like to
strengthen this program.  Please respond if you would like to share
information about your job and program.

Thanks,

Lori Partee, LMSW
