The psychiatrist has a new role. He or she reviews patient cases and consults with the care manager. Together they review how patients are doing. If a patient is not getting better, the psychiatrist may suggest a change in treatment. This might include recommending that the patient sees a mental health provider or have a change in medication. In all cases, the primary care doctor initiates any recommended changes in treatment.
