Beyond the Checkbox: Developing Measurement-Based Care as a Clinical Skill in PCBH - Journal of Health Service Psychology Measurement-Based Care (MBC) holds significant potential to enhance the effectiveness of the Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) model, yet it remains inconsistently applied. This article positions MBC not as a procedural task, but as a core clinical competency that fosters therapeutic alliance, clarifies treatment goals, and promotes equitable care. Drawing from contrasting clinical vignettes, we demonstrate how tools inform clinical decision-making and enhance collaboration when applied skillfully by Behavioral Health Consultants. Finally, this article identifies cultural, structural, and operational barriers to implementation and offers pragmatic strategies to integrate MBC into routine care. By reframing MBC as a clinical competency, we advocate for its broader adoption as a standard of care within integrated behavioral health and PCBH specifically.

MBC is more than paperwork — it’s powerful clinical practice. 📊✨

Engaged Employees “Own” Patient Care. Here’s What That Looks Like | Healthcare Plus Solutions Group My wife, Rishy, and I are owners of the Beloit Sky Carp baseball team, the high-A minor league affiliate of the Miami Marlins. I received a nice note from an employee saying they liked that I had ended an email with the words “gung ho!” I replied with a group message explaining a little more about the term and how it sums up what we want in the Sky Carp culture: an enthusiastic atmosphere created by an energetic group of people working together.
