    Abstract:
    With growing awareness of the need for integrated health care settings, psychiatrists may be required to provide clinical care at the primary care and behavioral health interface. This article discusses the curricular changes that could enhance the development of psychiatrists as leaders in integrated primary and behavioral health care. Psychiatrists may be called upon to provide enhanced collaborative care services at primary care or behavioral health settings. This article focuses on the provision of integrated care in behavioral health settings, especially in the public sector. The authors review the additional training in general medicine that would facilitate these skills. They outline the principles and goals to be considered in building such a curriculum. They examine the curricular building blocks of such training and also discuss challenges in implementing these curricular changes. Finally, they discuss the implications of incorporating integrated health care training on the future of psychiatric practice.
