Although collaborative, and more specifically, integrated models of care have existed for years, the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act expanded their use, and Medicare has adopted a value-based payment system that further emphasizes service provision within the collaborative health care setting. Neuropsychology as a field is well-situated to work within the integrated health care setting, which presents both opportunities and challenges for clinical neuropsychologists. This education paper details how different neuropsychology clinical practice settings fit into an integrated care framework; discusses challenges to service delivery and fiscal viability in such settings and other health care related settings; and examines future directions for the role of neuropsychology within a dynamic health care system. |
