The Department of Psychiatry at the University of Arizona College of Medicine โ Tucson is one of the original departments founded in 1967. It is known for its focus on community-based mental health care and a multidisciplinary approach to the medical/psychiatry interface. The department is dedicated to comprehensively preventing and treating psychiatric disorders, conducting cutting-edge research, and preparing future clinicians. Specialized services include the Center for Interventional Psychiatry and Neurotherapeutics (CIPN) for difficult-to-treat depression, the Early Psychosis Intervention Center (EPICenter) for young people in the early stages of serious mental illness, and the AZ Psychiatry Access Lines (APAL) for pediatric and perinatal providers.

Primary Electronic Health Record System
The University of Arizona Department of Psychiatry, being affiliated with Banner Health, utilizes the Banner Health patient portal, known as "Patient Account" or formerly "MyBanner patient portal". This portal allows patients to access their medical records, view doctor's notes and lab results, send messages to doctors, and schedule appointments. Banner Health, the larger health system with which the University of Arizona Department of Psychiatry is connected, primarily uses Cerner as its electronic health record (EHR) system. While Banner Health Network also lists eClinicalWorks as a preferred platform for some providers, Cerner is the predominant EHR system used across Banner Health's hospitals and facilities. The patient portal, "Banner Health Patient Account," serves as the patient interface for this Cerner EHR system. Therefore, the EHR vendor used by the University of Arizona Department of Psychiatry through its affiliation with Banner Health is Cerner.
