PART 1

1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 This is a non-personal services contract to provide Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) program training and implementation support.

1.2 Description of services/introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform PCBH program training and implementation support as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS) except for those items specified as government furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this PWS.

1.3 Background: Effective August 8, 2013 with the pulication of the Department of Defense Instruction 6490.15, Integration of Behavioral Health Personnel Services into Patient-Centered Medical Home Primary Care and Other Primary Care Service Settings, the Department of Defense formally launched the Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) program under the direction of the Defense Health Agency Program Director. The PCBH program blends two evidence-based collaborative care approaches to the treatment of behavioral health problems in primary care settings: the “care management” and the “primary care behavioral health” models.

PCBH augments traditional primary care operations with additional categories of staff including the Behavioral Health Care Facilitators (BHCF) and Behavioral Health Consultants (BHC) described below.

The DoDI 6490.15 along with the DHA-PI 6025.27, Integration of Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) Services into Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) and Other Primary Care Service Settings within the Military Health System (MHS) and the DHA-PM 6025.01, Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) Standards, specify core competencies, service-delivery requirements, documentation requirements, and services provided by both BHCFs and BHCs.

Further, the instructions include a requirement that PCBH Program Managers ensure installation-level compliance with the standards, requirements, and service delivery models specified as well as the requirement for PCBH expert trainers to assist with training the BHC and BHCF workforce.

Behavioral Health Care Facilitators (BHCFs) are registered nurses who deliver services in accordance with the care management model. The care management model is defined as a population-based model of care focused on a discrete clinical problem (e.g., depression). It incorporates specific pathways using a variety of components that systematically and comprehensively address how behavioral health problems are managed in the primary care setting. Primary Care Managers (PCMs) and BHCFs share information regarding patients, and there is a shared medical record, treatment plan, and standard of care. Typically, there is some form of systematic interface with specialty care.

Behavioral Health Consultants (BHCs) are psychologists, social workers, licensed professional counselors or supervised trainees in any of these disciplines who deliver services in accordance with the primary care behavioral health model. The primary care behavioral health model is defined as a team-based primary care approach to managing behavioral health problems and biopsychosocially influenced health conditions. The model’s main goal is to enhance the primary care team’s ability to manage and treat such problems/conditions, with resulting improvements in primary care services for the entire clinic population. The model incorporates into the primary care team a BHC to extend and support the PCMs and team. The BHC works as a generalist and an educator who provides high volume services that are accessible, team-based, and a routine part of primary care. The BHC operates within a scope of practice and a standard of care that is consistent with primary care and differs from the scope of practice and standard of care in a specialty outpatient mental health clinic.

1.4 Objectives:

Key personnel will provide support towards meeting the following objectives:

• Training BHCs and BHCFs in the PCBH model and care management model, respectively.

• Optimizing BHC and BHCF implementation in PCMHs through mentoring and implementation support activities.

• Advancing the fidelity of the PCBH program through creation of written reports, training materials, and products for dissemination (e.g., articles, posters, and presentations).

1.5 Scope: This award provides services to support the Defense Health Agency (DHA), Medical Affairs Directorate with the ability to provide installation-level training support in order to ensure installations are in compliance with standards, requirements, and service delivery models outlined in current PCBH guidance (e.g., DoDI 6490.15, DHA-PI 6025.27, and DHA- PM 6025.01). The scope of this effort includes services necessary to provide a full range of clinical advisory services within the scope of the mission assigned. Primarily, but not exclusively, services provided will focus on supporting DHA PCBH clinical processes but may include other administrative or scientific applications as well.
