Child & Adolescent Psychiatry in the Primary Care Setting

The Maine Pediatric & Behavioral Health Partnership established an ECHO Learning Collaborative which is a structured forum for primary care providers and their clinical team members to bring complex pediatric behavioral health cases for review and recommendations. Through a mix of brief, high-yield didactic presentations and exploration of complex patient cases, our team approach allows you to connect with subject matter experts and peers from around the State to discuss what really works.
