A medical home coalition is likely to provide which of the following benefits for individuals who have psychiatric–mental health disorders?
A) Increased contact time between a client and his or her care providers using the Internet
B) Provision of mental health services in a noninstitutional environment
C) Increased protection of individuals' privacy rights and confidentiality
D) Integration of all the mental health services that a client may require over time
Ans: D
The principles of the medical home coalition model include providing all services that each client may need or, if necessary, making sure the client has access to care outside the practice. The focus is on an ongoing relationship between providers and clients. The model does not explicitly prioritize the use of the Internet, increased confidentiality, or avoidance of inpatient care.
