Programas GOBHI
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is a specialized model of treatment and service delivery designed to provide comprehensive community-based mental health services to persons with serious and persistent mental illness (SPMI) who are at least 18 years of age, have severe functional impairments, and who have not responded to traditional psychiatric outpatient treatment or less intensive non-standard levels of outpatient mental health treatment.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
ABA therapy is an evidence-based intervention using the science of learning and behavior. ABA therapy applies our understanding of how behavior works in real situations and uses principles from learning theory to increase behaviors that are helpful to the child and decrease behaviors that are harmful or affect learning.
Choice Model Program
The “Choice Model” is a statewide non-Medicaid program designed to meet a variety of needs with flexibility in funding for individuals with serious and persistent mental illness (SPMI) who are at risk of, or have already accessed, residential and inpatient hospitalization. The aim of the Choice Model is to help people with mental health disabilities remain in their community of “choice”.
Community Health Development
The Community Health Development Team develops productive local partnerships with community-based organizations, healthcare systems, local governments, Oregon Health Plan (OHP) Members, Tribes and other local entities who address Social Determinants of Health and Health Equity in order to facilitate locally-driven health systems transformations.
Behavioral Health and Criminal Justice
The Oregon Center on Behavioral Health and Justice Integration (The Center) is a statewide program in partnership with the Oregon Health Authority to provide specialized training and technical assistance (TA) for behavioral health and justice partners to enhance knowledge and improve practices aimed at treating people who, primarily due to symptoms of serious behavioral health conditions, neurocognitive conditions, and/or intellectual/developmental disabilities, are at risk of becoming incarcerated or are already within the system.
Early Childhood
GOBHI partners with Moda Health for Eastern Oregon Coordinated Care Organization (EOCCO) to provide managed care, staff support, data, and resources to rural and frontier clinics that provide physical and mental health services to very young children and their families. EOCCO partners with oral health providers located throughout the region who provide quality dental care to children that are on the Oregon Health Plan.
Intensive In-Home Behavioral Health Treatment (IIBHT)
IIBHT is an intensive community-based service intended to help children, youth, and young adults through age 21, and their families, who require more frequent and intensive mental health treatment. It is provided outside of the traditional, once-a-week, clinic-based, outpatient model of care.
Non-Emergent Medical Transportation (NEMT)
GOBHI's NEMT program connects Oregon Health Plan members to physical, behavioral, and oral health care services. The program partners with local transportation providers and volunteer drivers to coordinate free rides for Oregon Health Plan members to and from scheduled medical appointments.
Older Adult Behavioral Health Initiative (OABHI)
The goal of this initiative is to better meet the needs of older adults and people with disabilities by improving timely access to care from qualified providers who work together to provide coordinated, quality and culturally responsive behavioral health and wellness services. GOBHI's OABHI team provides training and complex care consultations.
Substance Use Disorder
The Substance Use Disorders (SUD) team supports GOBHI’s commitment to ensuring our members have access to all levels of substance use disorder treatment services. This team supports Community Mental Health Programs (CMHPs) and other providers of SUD services throughout the region.
Systems of Care
Systems of Care is a spectrum of effective services and supports for children, youth, and families with or at risk of health or other challenges. This is a necessary organizational infrastructure to collaboratively overcome cross-sector barriers in child-serving systems, covering 12 counties with Practice Level Workgroups and Advisory/Executive Committees.
