The 2016 Annual Meeting of the APM will provide educational material to help clinicians provide optimal medical and psychiatric care for patients experiencing medical, surgical, or neurologic illness comorbid with psychiatric illness or neuropsychiatric symptoms.  This often unrecognized and underappreciated comorbidity is associated with significant adverse outcomes and cost.  The goal is to help clinicians and health systems in their pursuit of triple aims of health care: improve the experience of care, maximize the health of populations, and reduce the per capita costs of health care.
