CALL-UP (Consultation Access Link Line to Utah Psychiatry)

Psychiatric Consultation to Support Pediatricians & PCPs

Utah now has a state-wide psychiatric consult service. Huntsman Mental Health Institute (HMHI) has teamed up with the Office of Substance Use and Mental Health (SUMH) to create the Consultation Access Link Line to Utah Psychiatry (CALL-UP). CALL-UP is a new legislative funded program designed to address the limited number of psychiatric services in Utah and improve access to them. This state program will help serve patients at no cost to providers or patients in the state of Utah.

The goals of the program are to:

Optimize primary care providers’ ability and confidence to diagnose and treat mild to moderate mental health issues;
Improve quality of care and health outcomes for patients by affording early interventions;
Promote and improve mental health and physical health integration; and
Ensure appropriate referrals for individuals with serious behavioral health concerns.

This psychiatry consult program will support primary care providers in meeting the treatment needs for their patients' mental health.
