Abstract
As noted in the Introduction, the integration of behavioral health into primary care is happening, and happening quickly. Doors are opening for behavioral health professionals to participate in the health-care system in a manner and scope never seen before. Integration represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to broaden the scope and influence of the behavioral health professions while simultaneously improving the population’s health. Whether this opportunity is realized, or missed, hinges to a great extent on how we integrate.
