PSYHEALTH SELECTED AS FLORIDA'S PILOT COALITION LEADER

We're proud to share that PsyHealth has been selected as Florida's pilot coalition leader under the Chickasaw Federal Health Behavioral Health Information Technology (BHIT) program.

PsyHealth is one of nine organizations nationwide chosen to lead, test and implement USCDI+ Behavioral Health (USCDI+BH) data standards in real-world care settings. Supported by a $5 million federal investment, this initiative is designed to accelerate behavioral health interoperability across the country.

Through the InterConnect BH initiative, PsyHealth will focus on implementing 45 USCDI+ Behavioral Health data elements to strengthen care coordination, enhance structured data exchange, and reduce fragmentation across providers and managed care partners.

Behavioral health has long faced systemic data silos that limit collaboration and outcomes. By operationalizing national interoperability standards in Florida, we aim to build the infrastructure necessary for more integrated, accountable, and person-centered care.

We're honored to contribute to this important national effort and look forward to collaborating with partners committed to transforming behavioral health delivery.

What This Means

• Enhanced Interoperability: Advancing seamless data exchange between behavioral health providers and healthcare systems.
• Improved Patient Care: Better coordination of care through standardized data sharing protocols.
• National Impact: Contributing to nationwide standards that will benefit the entire behavioral health ecosystem.

Our Role as Coalition Leader

As Florida's pilot coalition leader, PsyHealth will work directly with healthcare providers, technology vendors, and other stakeholders to implement and test these new data standards. Our extensive experience in behavioral health management and technology integration makes us uniquely positioned to drive this important initiative forward.
