Episode 188 | Behavioral Health Belongs Here: Integrating It into Your Practice with Ed Speedling

Behavioral health is no longer a "nice to have"—it's an essential part of delivering high-quality, patient-centered care. In this episode of Medical Money Matters, Jill Arena welcomes healthcare executive and behavioral health expert Ed Speedling (MSW, MHA, FACHE), President of ES Healthcare Consulting. Drawing on decades of leadership experience, Ed shares why integrating behavioral health into primary care is one of the most important opportunities facing medical practices today. Together, Jill and Ed discuss the practical steps practices can take to embed behavioral health services, improve patient outcomes, strengthen care teams, and create a more sustainable model of care. Whether you're in private practice, leading a medical group, or planning for the future of healthcare delivery, this conversation offers valuable insights into treating the whole patient while building a healthier practice.
