22.3 Using Medical Home Care Management to Address Psychosocial Risks for Children

Children exposed to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are substantially more likely to encounter challenges to their health and wellness over the course of life. Safe Environment for Every Kid (SEEK) is an evidence-based screening for family stresses and psychosocial risks, which includes motivational interviewing and team collaboration to connect families to supportive resources. Intermountain Healthcare (IH) recently implemented care management teams in pediatric practices and mental health integration as part of a system-wide medical home initiative. Our objective was to explore implementation of SEEK using the infrastructure of medical home care management in pediatric practices.
