This three-part webinar series in collaboration with UnitedHealthcare is intended to educate UnitedHealthcare paneled providers on topics related to integrating behavioral health into pediatric primary care. The series will cover general aspects of pediatric integrated primary care as well as more focused topics in pediatric integrated primary care including management of ADHD and practice considerations.

Measurement-based care (MBC), also known as routine outcome monitoring, is a systematic and ongoing ‘assessment as intervention’ practice. There are four critical aspects of MBC: patients regularly complete outcome measures, clinicians view resulting interpreted results as feedback, the feedback influences clinical decision-making, and is shared in sessions with the patient. Several systematic reviews and meta-analyses support MBC as an evidence-based practice for treatment effectiveness (improved outcomes) and efficiency (fewer dropouts, less time to treatment response). This presentation will provide an introduction to MBC as a valuable tool for patient engagement and clinical decision support. Examples will span a variety of settings and populations including youth mental health and integrated care.
