- Abstract:
- Early intervention in psychosis (EIP) is well-supported by empirical evidence. Typically called Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) in the United States, CSC is a team-based intervention that combines well-established evidence-based treatments. These components include assertive case management, psychotherapy, supported employment and education (SEE) services, family education and support, and low doses of antipsychotic medications, delivered within a shared decision-making framework (Heinssen, Goldstein & Azrin, 2014). CSC programs are commonly 2-3 years in length. After attending a CSC program, clients often receive services in a regular outpatient setting within the same clinic or are referred routine services in the community (Jones et al., 2020). The current study, supported by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE), examines the landscape of existing approaches to continuity of care services that are available to CSC clients after participation in a CSC program, and how services may be better integrated into larger systems. The study combines an environmental scan with a set of nine case studies. Based on interviews with nearly 90 respondents, these case study sites highlight variability in how continuity of care services are provided and integrated with other systems and programs, how services are funded, and challenges and opportunities in continuity of care.
