Integrating behavioral health and primary care: consulting, coordinating and collaborating among professionals.
This paper sought to describe how clinicians from different backgrounds interact to deliver integrated behavioral and primary health care, and the contextual factors that shape such interactions. It concluded that primary care and behavioral health clinicians, through their interactions, consult, coordinate, and collaborate with each other to solve patients' problems.

Complexity, public reporting, and choice of doctors: a look inside the blackest box of consumer behavior.
The authors identified four pathways through which complexity may impair consumer choice. They examined these pathways using data from an experiment in which consumers hypothetically selected a primary care physician. They found that some of the loss of decision quality accompanying more complex choice sets can be explained by consumers' skills and decision-making style, but even after accounting for these factors, complexity undermines the quality of decision making in ways that cannot be fully explained. They concluded by discussing implications for report designers, sponsors, and policy makers aspiring to promote consumer empowerment and health care quality.

Understanding the acceptability of a computer decision support system in pediatric primary care.
In this study, the investigators examine the attitudes and opinions of pediatric users' toward the Child Health Improvement through Computer Automation (CHICA) system, a computer decision support system linked to an electronic health record in four community pediatric clinics. The investigators found that pediatric users appreciated the system's automation and enhancements that allowed relevant and meaningful clinical data to be accessible at point of care.
