Community First Health Plans is committed to working with our Providers to improve the quality of care for our Members.
Please use this Use of First-Line Psychosocial Care for Children and Adolescents on Antipsychotics (APP) Provider Tip Sheet for guidance regarding the importance of utilizing psychosocial interventions for children and adolescents (1-17 years of age) before considering antipsychotic medications. This is a Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) measure.
Our goal is to ensure that safer first-line psychosocial interventions are utilized, and that children and adolescents do not unnecessarily incur the risks associated with antipsychotic medications.
