Innovations in Managing Serious Mental Illness

The hidden key to cutting the cost curve

Individuals with a serious mental illness (SMI) often present with complex co-morbid conditions as well as social, occupational, and legal challenges that may exacerbate symptoms and lead to over-utilization of emergency departments  and crisis stabilization services.

 

LSF Health Systems, a behavioral health managing entity overseeing a network of more than 60 provider organizations spanning a third of the state, shares best practices and case studies from its community-based care coordination program, which boasts a remarkably low recidivism rate (3% to 5%).  

 

LSF discusses the best practices that serve as the foundation for their successful work with this very challenging population: 

 

  • The most effective engagement strategies
  • Applying social determinants of health to impact outcomes
  • Successful strategies for maintaining medication compliance
  • The key to collaborating with primary care providers
