Idaho Primary Care Association : School Located Behavioral Health Resources

School Located Behavioral Health

Across the state there is an increased need for behavioral health resources, and for schools, there may be behavioral health services and resources locally. Idaho's Community Health Centers (CHCs) are locally operated health care systems offering affordable care, and many are already collaborating with schools in your area to provide behavioral health services. If you would like to know more about implementing these programs the Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation has developed a guide for schools to increase access to behavioral health services for students and families. Contact Nicole Pearson at npearson@idahopca.org or (208) 898-3822 at the Idaho Primary Care Association for more information.

Services provided onsite may be eligible for reimbursement from Medicaid as well as private payers making the program affordable for families and schools. CHCs offer free health insurance enrollment assistance. If children are identified as in need of healthcare, CHCs are available to answer questions and enroll them into the Children’s Health Insurance Program or other private insurance. IPCA has outreach materials available to provide information to families on how to receive free health insurance enrollment assistance. If you are interested in receiving some printed materials please contact Nicole Davis at ndavis@idahopca.org or (208) 898-3813.
