This paper describes the IBM plan and the development of the relationship between IBM, and its managed care vendor and an independent mental health advisory board. Areas in which effective collaboration were established are discussed, such as provider credentialing standards, development of clinical review processes, among others. Two years following implementation of the program, it was found that utilization costs had decreased by 7%. | en_US |
