Abstract

This special issue on neuropsychology practices in integrated healthcare teams demonstrates how neuropsychologists have transformed their practices in an evolving healthcare landscape. These contributions are an overview of the many ways in which neuropsychologists function in integrated care teams. The experiences of integrated neuropsychologists serve as a model for those seeking new practice opportunities by providing highly practical, clinically relevant information. Included in this volume are articles on education and reimbursement issues, information about clinical practices that address diagnostic issues, prognostics and clinical management, as well as surgical treatment planning and outcome prediction. Authors highlight the value of their services, their contribution to improving team and patient communication, as well as the biopsychosocial understanding of the patient. Several unexpected challenges are detailed among the pearls and pitfalls of these practices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
