"You have to be in the courts, which we are now. I think you have to be in the hospitals, in the personal care offices. You have to have services that are very accessible," said Mirhej. One of the ways the nonprofit did this was by becoming the healthcare provider for the Dudley drug court. Through the court, people arrested on substance abuse charges get access to a hyper- personalized, treatment-based court. It's a different approach to substance abuse, maybe a complete 180-degree turn from the War on Drugs of days past. "Unlike most courts where you come in and it's like, 'You were positive again … We're going to lock you up for another month,' this is like, 'Ok, what do you need? What's not working? What's happening?'" Mirhej said. Integration of services Through the $3.5-million grant Harrington received, called the Community Hospital Acceleration, Revitalization, and Transformation (CHART) Investment Program, the nonprofit has put more resources towards closing the gap between behavioral health and what might be seen as more conventional medical services. Historically, these two branches of treatment have been approached as separate issues rather than together, to the detriment of patients, Mirhej said. "It's almost as if we split the brain and the body. The people in the hospital treat the body like we treat the brain," he said. "It's very divorced." Yet, medical problems and behavioral health problems co-occur all the time. Closing the gap between these health services is a big focus of healthcare reform, said Anuj Goel, vice president of legal and regulatory affairs for the Massachusetts Hospital Association. "In terms of healthcare reform, they talk about integrating care Harrington President and CEO Ed Moore, and Phil Freeman, project superintendent from Monitor Builders, Inc., at the new Harrington dual diagnosis unit in Webster.
