Annual Sustainability Costs

Lessons Learned • Cultures of collaborating agencies are

integral to the success of providing integrated care. A new “Whole Health Culture” had to be built.

• Whole Health staff must become part of CODAC processes and protocols.

• Conflicting organizational policies needed to be discovered, discussed and revised.

Lessons Learned • Being in the same building is not

integrated care. Staff from all programs must be intertwined and work collaboratively.

• The importance of development and ongoing revision of an efficient work flow.

• Use of an Electronic Health Record that supports integrated health care is essential.

Barriers and Solutions • Plan to build bridge between two

different EHR systems was too time intensive and too expensive. Solution?

• Delay in state licensure of medical services. Solution?

• Medication seeking members. Solution?

• Lower levels of program enrollment than anticipated. Solution?
