BHO Medication Fill Data: 2010-2014

The Behavioral Health Organization (BHO) initiative oversees the transition to managed care for Medicaid recipients who receive mental health (MH) and substance use disorder (SUD) services in New York State. The metrics emphasize improving rates of timely follow-up treatment post discharge, timely filling of appropriate medication prescriptions post discharge, and reducing rates of readmission.The BHO Medication Fill dataset is designed to assess the frequency with which individuals receiving Mental Health or SUD treatment fill an initial prescription for a mood stabilizer, anti-psychotic, psychotropic, or anti-addition medication within 30 days of discharge from a mental health inpatient hospitalization or SUD inpatient stay and refill those prescriptions within 100 days of discharge.
The year 2015 saw the conclusion of the first phase of the Behavioral Health Organization initiative
(BHO). A new Behavioral Health Managed Care Transition phase II is underway. The data contained in
the BHO metrics span 2010 to 2014, using the 2010 calendar year for a baseline. Earlier in the program
(2011‐2012) the metrics were calculated quarterly and on a year‐to‐date basis, later in (2013‐2014),
New York State Office of Mental Health opted for semi‐annual and year‐to‐date aggregations.

行为健康组织（BHO）倡议负责监督纽约州接受心理健康（MH）和物质使用障碍（SUD）服务的中请人过渡至管理式医疗。该指标体系强调提高出院后及时跟进治疗率、及时填写适当药物处方率，并降低再入院率。BHO药物配对数据集旨在评估接受心理健康或SUD治疗的患者在出院后30天内首次配对情绪稳定剂、抗精神病药、精神活性药物或抗成瘾药物，并在出院后100天内重新配对这些药物的频率。2015年，行为健康组织倡议（BHO）的第一阶段工作圆满完成。新的行为健康管理式医疗过渡第二阶段正在实施中。BHO指标中的数据涵盖2010年至2014年，以2010年为基线。在项目早期（2011-2012年），指标按季度和年初至今计算，而在后期（2013-2014年），纽约州心理健康办公室选择了半年和年初至今的汇总。
