This contract will fund services to implement the Orange County Integrated Behavioral Health Program for up to 400 encounters annually. This evidence-based, outcomes-driven initiative utilizes the Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) model and the Modular Approach to Therapy for Children with Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, or Conduct Problems (referred to as "MATCH") as the primary mental health intervention for children and youth requiring behavioral health and pediatric medical care services. No organization utilizes a combined model of PCBH and MATCH. Pediatric Associates Holding Company, LLC is the sole provider that will work exclusively with The Baker Center for Children and Families, the sole purveyor, to implement MATCH in a pediatric setting and study the impact of the combined evidence-based models.
