Health Homes provide integration - or close coordination of primary and behavioral health/substance use services. They are most commonly, but not always, focused on serving individuals with one or more chronic health conditions. As defined by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, a health home provides six specific services beyond the clinical services offered by a typical primary care provider:

• Comprehensive care management
• Care coordination and health promotion
• Comprehensive transitional care and follow-up
• Patient and family support
• Referral to community and social support services
• Use of information technology to link services, if applicable

A medical home can be the facility for a health home, or the health home may be located in another facility, such as a behavioral health practice or community-based organization.
