Health Complexity and Integrated Physical Health and Mental Condition Practices

Health complexity and the integration of physical and mental condition care are currently a popular topic areas throughout the health care industry; however, few have the background or the expertise to create a framework, which connects health complexity with integrated workflows and business practices that make sense to both physical and behavioral health audiences. This area of health is particularly important as payment reform is connected to delivery reform through the creation of patient centered medical homes and accountable care organizations. Without including the integration of mental condition to general medical services, purchasers, health plans, care delivery systems, and management vendors will miss a major opportunity to connect improved health outcomes with reduced health care costs.

Cartesian Solutions, Inc.™ keynotes are designed to:

  • Describe the how the interaction of general medical and mental conditions leads to poor medical and mental health clinical outcomes, persistent functional impairment, and high long-term health and disability costs
  • Provoke reflection about current business and clinical practices by defining the core causes of treatment resistance and high cost in patients with multimorbid chronic illness or health complexity
  • Define concrete steps that can be used to create a healthier and less expensive health care environment for high cost complex patients

Cartesian Solutions, Inc.™ seminars are designed to:

  • Fill the educational gap related to complexity and the interaction of physical and mental conditions
  • Improve understanding about the importance of using health complexity, and not disease acuity, as a targeting mechanism for integrated services
  • Review integrated care models that bring improved health outcomes for hospitals and clinics, health plans, employers and government agencies, and care management vendors
  • Delineate the steps for each constituency, which are needed to develop value-added integrated programs

Content for keynotes and seminars is adapted to the audience.
