e-Screening, brief intervention, and connection to care for behavioral health in pregnancy*

High Touch, High Tech (HT2) is a collaborative program pairing technology-based screening and brief intervention for pregnant women (the Mom's Check-Up app; the ‘high tech’ part) with same-day access to virtual counseling and care coordination through remote behavioral health consultants (BHCs; the ‘high touch’ part).

 

  • High Tech. The Mom's Checkup is an easy-to-use mobile app available to any clinic providing care to pregnant mothers in Michigan. Prior to a new intake appointment, the app screens patients for behavioral health risks; those who screen positive are offered a brief motivational intervention that is provided directly by the app, and then are helped to get connected to services.

  • High Touch. In some areas, the Mom's Checkup can connect patients directly with the “High Touch” element of behavioral health services via tele-counseling, which can be provided either at home or in the waiting room. Also in some areas, a current pilot innovation project (funded through the Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies initiative) integrates HT2 with the state-wide perinatal access program MC3 Perinatal.
