Read the briefing paper with the recommendations

This PCC briefing paper of recommendations on increasing the uptake of shared decision-making in integrated behavioral health care is the result of identifying existing research literature that addressed barriers and enablers of shared decision making at the intersection of primary care and behavioral health. Following that, a roundtable of diverse stakeholders with expertise in primary care, behavioral health, and shared decision-making reviewed the evidence and developed the recommendations on how to increase the prevalence of SDM in integrated practice, including for disadvantaged populations.
