AAP Pediatric Mental Health Care Access Grant Update
We spent the summer and early fall executing the AAP Pediatric Mental Health Care Access (PMHCA) Program Utilization grant “BHIPP to Pediatric Mental Health” our chapter was awarded. The goal of the grant was to increase awareness of, utilization of, and the sustainability of Maryland's (PMHCA) program: Maryland Behavioral Health Integration in Pediatric Primary Care (BHIPP). Our BHIPP to Pediatric Mental Health program implementation was selected to be a QI presentation at the 45th National Conference on Pediatric Health Care March 13-16 in Denver, Colorado.
