Free CME on behavioral health and underserved populations (BHUP)

The Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, with funding from the Ohio Department of Medicaid, has developed seven web-based on-line CME courses specifically designed for psychiatric physicians and other providers in caring for underserved patients and families.  

The behavioral health and underserved populations (BHUP) modules, which include didactic videos and electronic resource tool kits, focus on social determinants of health as well as behavioral and developmental concerns, with an emphasis on providing busy clinicians with clinical pearls and tools that can be applied immediately in day-to-day practice.

Topics available in BHUP’s phase 1 include:

• Surviving Poverty in Ohio:  Understanding Families’ Rights and Benefits  (.50 CMEs)
