Urban versus rural/frontier in using PCBHI

A question was asked regarding what are the factors to consider when implementing a primary care and behavioral health integrated care program in both a rural and urban area. My experience over the years has told me that placing a major focus on understanding your patient culture (with sensitivity and compassion)to the diverse and unique needs of patient that enters your clinic. The type of PCBHI program should reflect the needs of your patient that is culturally induced in your region. Good question.
