Olympia Pediatrics Integrated Behavioral Health Program

Treating behavioral health care in the same setting as primary care is proven to increase patient engagement and lead to a better healthcare experience. The key is to empower patients to set goals for themselves, and to make sure those goals are communicated to every member of the care team.  Please ask your primary care provider if a referral to our Behavioral Health program is appropriate for your child. 

Important Billing Information Re: Collaborative Care

In the CoCM model, Insurance is billed for all behavioral health services monthly. One claim each month is submitted to your insurance plan with a cumulative total of behavioral health care provided during that month. This includes office visits with Michelle or Ellie and the time your PCP and Behavioral Health Specialist collaborate on your child’s care plan.  CoCM billing is processed under most insurance plans as a Medical Benefit so will be subject to co-pays and deductibles.
