Specialty Mental Health (SED, SPMI, SMI)
Specialized Needs Require Specialized Approaches
Adults with Serious Mental Illness (SMI) or Serious Persistent Mental Illness (SPMI) and children and youth with Serious Emotional Disturbance (SED) are among the most medically complex, socially vulnerable, and systematically underserved populations in American health care. They require more than standard behavioral health services. They require integrated systems of care, court-ordered treatment coordination, Assertive Community Treatment, health home models, crisis stabilization, housing support, and providers who understand the clinical, regulatory, and financing landscape at the deepest level.
Hess III Consulting has worked inside these populations — not theoretically, but operationally — for more than 18 years. We've designed clinical models for Systems of Care covering adults experiencing SMI children experiencing SED in Arizona, and across the county. We've authored System of Care Program Evaluations and Quality Service Reviews. We launched new integrated health homes for specialty mental health, managed mergers and acquisitions.
When government and public sector payers, providers, vendors or investors need to navigate SMI, SPMI, or SED systems — they need a partner who has lived it. That is Hess III Consulting.
