AMA Releases New Mental Health Resources for Physicians
May 19, 2022
In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, the AMA has released resources to help physicians integrate behavioral health into their practices, as well as prioritize their own mental well-being.
Two newly developed guides focus on behavioral health integration in private practices - one for practices serving adult patients and the other for those serving children and adolescent populations. The guides outline key guiding questions relevant to independent practices caring for adult and youth patients who are considering behavioral health integration.
The newly revised “Managing Mental Health During COVID-19” resource outlines strategies to support mental well-being, while continuing to care for patients during the pandemic or any other crisis. Updates include additional resources to care for staff, including the AMA’s “Creating a Resilient Organization” and "Implementing a Work From-Home Program” guides, as well as strategic practice guides and the BHI Collaborative’s BHI Compendium, which provides guidance on how to integrate mental and behavioral health care into your practice.
