Cincinnati Children’s Integrated Behavioral Health – Partner With Us Today

Demand for pediatric behavioral health services is at an all-time high, and access is more challenging than ever. Cincinnati Children’s Integrated Behavioral Health (IBH) program is here to help aid in prevention, early intervention, and timely access to effective, evidence-based behavioral health treatment. To date, we have currently supported 13 IBH providers across 10 community practices and have demonstrated both positive clinical outcomes and financial sustainability.

Our IBH model helps to:

  • Promote valuing of mental and behavioral health and reduce stigma

  • Deliver care in a convenient, trusted location

  • Remove barriers to access to behavioral health care

  • Close the gap between those needing services and those receiving them

  • Reduce cost of care through earlier intervention and prevent ED visits

Our IBH program is expanding, and we would like to partner with your pediatric primary care practice to help reduce the burden on pediatricians, who are often the first to identify behavioral health concerns.
