Previous work in Stage 1: Plan and Stage 2: Design produced a blueprint and an implementation plan to improve integrated behavioral health care.

Stage 3 puts that plan into action with a pilot population of patients and adjusts it to meet the needs of patients, clinicians, and staff.

• Step 1 provides a repeating cycle of rapid improvement activities using the Plan, Do, Study, and Act model.

• Step 2 finalizes all changes made with a plan for future monitoring and ideas for future improvements.
