The Michigan Integrated Health Learning Community is an initiative funded by the Michigan Department of Community Health and The Michigan Primary Care Association that links Federally Qualified Health Centers, Community Health Centers, Community Mental Health Centers and Prepaid Inpatient Health Providers together through a variety of resources including this website, regular meetings and coaching provided by consumers and staff trained in IH implementation.
"Integrated Health Care programming" means that physical and mental health, including substance abuse services, are provided in one location or with strong collaboration between two or more separate organizations by providing welcoming and easy to navigate servcies. Providers work together as a single team for the benefit of the consumer and the focus in on collaboration, wellness and recovery.
