Participating clinics will have the opportunity to improve their integrative health services, learn from other clinics, have access to tools, experts and educational resources in integrative health and to engage in practice improvement and evaluation of their programs in integrative health. Description: The purpose of the Integrative Health Learning Community (IHLC) is to implement integrative health care visits and approaches into routine primary care. Clinics participating in IHLC will be trained in use of the HOPE Toolkit, in non-pharmacological approaches for pain and opioid management, and in evidence-based complementary treatments and support of self-care for chronic diseases. The learning community is free to participants, provided participants are willing to implement these tools over at least 9 months in a selected population, evaluate this process in their clinic and report on the results at the next FMEC or other national meeting in 2021. Participants will have access to the HOPE Note Tools and other resources, to expert faculty who will assist in implementation and evaluation, the opportunity to learn from other pioneering practices across the country who are dedicated to producing and promoting person-centered, integrative health care.
