Collaborative Care the VIBEcare Way

There are over 90 research studies documenting that CoCM improves the outcomes of behavioral health conditions treated in the Primary Care. Components of the traditional CoCM include:

  • Care management

  • Consultation with a psychiatric prescriber (psychiatrist, ARNP)

  • Data tracking registry

  • PCP reports

Through our technology platform we have automated these components and augmented the CoCM with evidence-based interventions tailored to primary care based on our own research. These were developed by nationally recognized experts in integrated primary care. They combine several evidence-based tools found to be most effective in Primary Care. This allows our Board-Certified Health Coaches to deliver the most impactful care to Primary Care patients with a standardized and scalable approach.
