Primary Care Mental Health Integration (PCMHI)
What is PCMHI?
Primary Care Mental Health Integration (PCMHI) is a program that provides mental health and/or psychiatric treatment in the primary care office. It is designed to make mental health care more available to patients who need/want it. PCMHI involves a team of mental health professionals who work closely with primary care providers (PCPs) to learn about a patient's specific mental health needs and help provide treatment.
Why am I being referred to PCMHI?
Mental health conditions like depression and anxiety are common and can impact your overall health. Your PCP has begun to address and treat your mental health concerns, though you may not yet be seeing improvement in your symptoms. A referral to the PCMHI program allows a specialized team of mental health professionals to make recommendations about medications, provide therapy, and/or help with referrals to other services.
How does the program work?
- Your PCP sends a referral to the PCMHI team.
- The PCMHI team reviews your medical chart and will either schedule an appointment with you, or provide recommendations to your PCP.
- Your PCP will incorporate the recommendations into your care plan.
- If needed, a member of the PCMHI scheduling team will call you to schedule an appointment with a member of the PCMHI team.

Emergencies
Emergency situations are given immediate attention. We provide 24-hour physician coverage for emergencies. After regular office hours, call the office number, and you will be given instructions on what to do. The on-call doctor will return your call if requested. In extreme emergencies, please call 911. When you arrive at the hospital, please identify yourself or your child as our patient.
Test Results
If you have an appointment scheduled shortly after your test, we will go over the results with you during your office visit, otherwise your labs will be published to your portal. If you have not signed up for your provider portal, please contact our office. If labs or diagnostic imaging results fall outside normal ranges, a nurse or clinician will call to discuss them with you.
Fees
Our practice requires payment at the time services are rendered. We will directly bill Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Medicaid, Medicare, MVP, and Cigna. We also accept cash, check, and MasterCard/Visa. We may bill other insurance companies as a courtesy to our patients; however, payment is ultimately your responsibility. We do offer a Financial Assistance Plan for those who qualify. Co-pays are due at time of service.
Appointment Information
- If you are unable to keep a scheduled appointment, please give us 24 hours' notice so that we can use your appointment time for another patient.
- Please arrive 15 minutes before your appointment time. If you are more than 5 minutes late for your scheduled appointment time, you will be asked to reschedule.

Integrative Family Medicine - Montpelier wants to make the process for refilling prescriptions as easy and efficient as possible. We want you to get the prescriptions you need with as few phone calls as possible.
Here are suggestions that we think will help us reach this goal:
Call Your Pharmacy First
Even if your bottle says no refills, call your pharmacy first. We work with them daily to make sure that you have the medications you need when you need them.
To prevent patients from running out of their medications, most pharmacies fax a refill request to us when your prescriptions need to be refilled. This happens behind the scenes automatically in some pharmacies. Therefore your new prescriptions may be at the pharmacy already.
If you call the prescription line at Integrative Family Medicine - Montpelier: 371- 4616
You must leave your name, date of birth, medication name, dose and frequency, and a phone number to reach you so we can insure the correct medication is processed for the correct patient.
Please Allow 2 Business Days to Process Refills
We receive many requests daily so we must have two business days to process prescription refill requests.
Call your pharmacy and let them know if you are out of medication and ask them to request a refill.
Sometimes We Cannot Refill Your Medication
- You may be overdue for an appointment. Our policy is that anyone taking medications must be seen once a year at least (more if recommended by your provider).
- Your insurance may require a Prior Authorization, which takes a minimum of 2 business days.
- It may be too soon for a refill. If it is not time to get a refill, your insurance company may not cover the cost.
Picking up written prescriptions
Controlled substances must be picked up by the patient.
Please notify us if you are unable to pick up your written prescription.
As our valued patients, we welcome your suggestions and/or
comments about how the process works for you. Thank you.
