With years of experience, our medical team will assess you and create a custom recovery plan that's right for you. We understand the importance of educating you on the most effective ways to take care of your body, so that you can heal quickly.   In 2010, Robert L. Jamison, Ph.D. A 33 years healthcare professional created a company called Alternative Healthcare LA. A Behavioral Health and Chronic Care Management Practice in association with Psychology Associate, PA. It was established to assist practices in remote locations with their medical and psychiatric needs. One of their available tools is a Behavioral Health Assessment (BHA). This assessment helps identify: Trauma (PTSD), Depression, Anxiety, Suicide, Substance Abuse, and Bipolar disorder and tracks the individuals progress over time. The test is secure, HIPAA compliant, and takes about ten minutes to complete. The results are provided to the individual and the appropriate management team for evaluation to take the next steps to get you the professional assistance they require. The unique aspect of this BHA program is we will provide you with your own personal report including a Patient Care Plan at the time your findings are determined. The only thing you need to get started is a one-time $55 Behavioral Health Consultant fee to identify that there is a problem. 


 Monitoring Symptoms using RPM Mental illness signs and symptoms may vary, depending on the disorder, circumstances, and other factors. Mental illness symptoms can affect emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. The most common signs and symptoms are loneliness or sadness, confusion or lack of concentration, excessive fears and worries, extreme feelings of guilt, withdrawal from friends and family members, fatigue, delusions or hallucinations, significant change in eating habits, extreme anger or violence, suicidal thoughts, and even physical pain such as stomach pain, back pain, headaches, or other unexplained aches and pains.  Many of these signs and symptoms can be tracked by Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM). RPM uses sensors and wearable devices to measure patients’ physiological data. It then transmits these data to a cloud database, where providers may access anytime and anywhere. RPM allows providers to continuously and remotely monitor their patients and adjust their treatment plan, if needed.COVID-19 is changing everything. Our healthcare system is overloaded. Patients with chronic diseases can be subjected to high risk of cross-infection. Care delivery models are abruptly changed to remote care services.  The COVID-19 entailed a complete paradigm shift in how health care was delivered, enabling exponential usage in telehealth and RPM for acute disease monitoring. Unfortunately, with so many virus strains that are spreading worldwide, including in the United States, COVID-19 infections, hospitalizations, and deaths are on the rise in nearly all states as of this writing, thanks to the B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant, which is far more contagious than the previous variants of the virus.
 

AHC Behavioral Health Assessments are scheduled by Appointment Only. If you’ve been hurt at work, or if you’ve developed a condition or disease that affects your daily life, there are disability-related resources that may help you. Many of these require a disability evaluation by an accredited Physician. Dr. Robert Jamison and the healthcare professionals at Alternative Healthcare LA, with offices on Washington Blvd and Vernon Ave in Los Angeles, can provide you with referrals for the medical examination as well as pairing you with other medical professionals as necessary. Book an appointment online, or call one of the offices today. It may be that you may require unemployment benefits and this recommendation will be made if you are determined to not be disabled.

Our objectives are to determine if there are any life-threatening conditions demanding immediate treatment and if returning to work is safe for you and for your co-workers. We understand that job stress can lead to severe anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. We have specialists and strategic partners locally and out-of-area to assist with your recovery. There are jobs with exceedingly high physical demands which may trigger or precipitate back pain, neck strain, and joint dysfunction. We work with Providers that offer treatment at discounted rates for patients without health insurance and have limited incomes.

 

What is a disability examination?
 

When you’ve suffered an injury or impairment for which some level of benefits are available, that disability or impairment is often confirmed by a Physician. The benefits could be paid by the government, such as for Social Security or workers’ compensation, or through private insurance, so there’s usually an investigative process for which a disability exam is a key component.

A disability examination may not end with your physician’s evaluation, however. often other specialists are involved. For example, if you’ve suffered a work-related injury, an occupational medicine specialist or occupational therapist’s assessment may be requested to determine how your injuries interfere with your work and what accommodations are needed if you are to return to work. Allied Health Solutions works with many other specialists in the Los Angeles area, so referrals are easy and, in some cases, close to one of the Alternative Healthcare LA locations.


 As your BHC, our providers begin with recording your chief complaint, history and performing a Behavioral Health Assessment and developing an assessment and treatment plan, including referrals.

Alternative Healthcare LA may connect you with therapists or with specialists as needed in consideration of your diagnosis, such as seeing a psychiatrist or psychotherapist if you’re experiencing job stress. We may also refer you to an Orthopedist, Rheumatologist or Pain Management Specialist depending upon the medical issues. Primarily, our goal is to get you back to work as soon as possible. We understand that it is potentially more damaging to be off of work. A lack of employment will result in severe financial hardships and could have a psychological impact. For job stress, a Psychotherapist would focus on the development of effective coping mechanisms. The requirements for the examining physician may change from case-to-case as well. For example, if Dr. Gill, M.D. is your Primary Care Physician, some agencies may request their own contracted doctor or an impartial third-party doctor. However, in many cases, using your Primary Care Physician is acceptable.

Medical Staff Who Care

Not only will our doctors treat your existing conditions, we also work to maximize your prevention strategies. We strive to help you improve your quality of life, achieve your wellness goals, and support your best possible life. 


DrKumo, Inc. exclusive partnership with Alternative Healthcare LA Founder Robert L. Jamison, Ph.D, and his Behavioral Health Program to assist with Chronic Disease Management by Remote Patient Monitoring
 

Alternative Healthcare LA Behavioral Health Director Robert L. Jamison, CRA, PhD and Dr Kelly Nguyen at DrKumo, Inc. bridges the gap between Mental Health and Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM). A telehealth company that is turning smartphones into a patient-centric, and connecting health platforms to enable continuous, real time physiological data monitoring for chronically ill patients in acute care, skilled nursing and hospital settings.

As a psychological support tool with DrKumo Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) program, our nationally recognized, peer-reviewed, and clinically validated Behavioral Health Assessment measures seven different dimensions. (depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar, addictions, suicide, a functional level.) Patients can take the assessment on any web-enabled device in under five minutes. Clinicians receive clear results that measure and monitor patients for the best possible care. Medicare and most commercial insurance reimburse for these services. When the patient's test positive for depression, additional assessment for other psychological problems, such as anxiety, bipolar, trauma (PTSD),  substance abuse disorders and suicide should be undertaken These additional assessments are important, as 20% of primary care patients who screen positive for depression suffer from bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, and substance use disorders.  Our multidimensional assessment is one-stop shopping. One in five people in this country has a diagnosable mental health condition. Mood & Anxiety disorders are the most common psychiatric disorders seen in primary care offices. Yet most end up undiagnosed and not treated. Patients do not have to suffer in silence any longer.


BHA Benefits:

1. The BHA has been proven to reduce non-diagnosis, misdiagnosis, mistreatment, and delays in treatment.
2. The BHA patient-rated screen and longitudinal monitoring facilitate the patient's collaborative participation in their treatment.

3. The BHA encourages patients to feel that, for any life problem they can bring it to their doctor.
4. Better mental health care to patients who may otherwise receive none.
5. Reduce overall insurance costs via early identification of problems due to the fact the survey results will provide early intervention when needed.

In Summary the Behavioral Health Assessment, is SIMPLE for patients to take, EASY to administer is CONVENIENT and BENEFICIAL for patients, it PRODUCES measurable results within 5 minutes. 

AHC consists of Physicians and Behavioral Health providers from multiple disciplines, including primary care, internal medicine, psychiatry, psychology, social work, marriage/family therapy, and counseling specialties. Our Medical & Behavioral Health specialists are independent practitioners who practice Telephonically, Virtually and face to face in their own offices.

AHC provides secured consultations for those consumers wishing to use these modalities to communicate with our Medical & Behavioral Health experts. Confidentiality, and safeguarding a patient’s personal information is our primary ethical commitment. By utilizing this resource, practices can provide better patient diagnosis and care. 


DrKumo technology is a leader in massively scalable, continuous, real-time Remote Patient Monitoring solution for Chronic Disease Management, Acute Care, Post-Operation, and Hospital Care At Home.


Remote patient monitoring (RPM) was once thought to be one of the most successful approaches in monitoring disease progression or improvement for hypertension, diabetes, and other chronic conditions. RPM captures and sends patient health data to clinicians via linked devices outside of a traditional clinical care setting. These devices keep track of a wide range of vital signs, such as blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation levels.

Mental illness had been an alarming issue among Americans, fueled by feelings of loneliness and isolation when the pandemic struck in March. The 2021 State of Mental Health in America report states that mental health in the United States continues to deteriorate, that many states are unprepared to deal with the crisis, and that the government is called out to act immediately. In the said report, 19% of adult Americans experienced mental illness from 2017 to 2018. There was an increase of 1.5 million people based on last year’s dataset. Moreover, the percentage of adults in the U.S. who are experiencing severe thoughts of suicide increased to 0.15% from 2016-2017 to 2017-2018 or an additional of 460,000 people from last year’s dataset.

Mental illness chooses no age. In fact, in the above-mentioned report, from 2017 to 2018, 9.7% of adolescents in the United States experience severe major depression. Additionally, 60% of these adolescents were not able to receive mental health therapy. Even in states with the highest availability of resources, many of their residents were left untreated. Today, with the fast-growing advancement in technology, experts are routing for RPM to help in treating and understanding more patients with mental illness.
