For jails with established behavioral health services, what delivery model has worked best in your facility, and who provides the services (jail staff, contracted provider, healthcare vendor, community mental health provider, etc.)?
We're also interested in:
- Who funds the services?
- Whether you use standard service expectations, staffing levels, performance measures, or rates.
- Vendors or provider organizations that have been particularly successful and why.
- Key lessons learned and advice for jurisdictions seeking consistent, high-quality behavioral health services across multiple jails.
We are especially interested in models that have been successfully implemented across multiple facilities or on a regional or statewide basis.
