Primary Care Training and Enhancement (PCTE): Integrating Behavioral Health and Primary Care Program (IBHPC)

All of our PCTE programs provide medical education for physicians and physician assistants.

Use our PCTE Grantee Evaluation Resources. They’ll help you develop an evaluation framework.

These training materials focus on readiness for interdisciplinary care, and health care access, quality, and cost.

IBHPC funds training programs that combine behavioral health care and primary care. We focus on rural and high-need areas. There’s an emphasis on opioid use disorder treatment.
