AAPP details the policy changes needed to enable psychiatric pharmacists to be key professionals helping to bridge care gaps and enhance care integration for people with multiple co-occurring medical and psychiatric conditions and complex medication regimens in both primary care and behavioral health settings. Medicare enhancements, inclusion of psych pharmacists in the collaborative care model, and financial support of PGY2 residencies are among the policy recommendations.
