The problem:
- 1-in-5 children today struggle with mental health
- 50% of them do not receive care. Those that do, face:
- Average wait times of 3.5 months (in states with higher availability)
- High out of pocket costs
- Inconsistent quality (only 20% of behavioral health care is evidence-based)
Our solution:
A partnership model that brings pediatricians, parents, providers and payers together.
The benefits:
1. For pediatricians: refer directly in less than 90 seconds for therapy and psychiatry appointments typically within 7 days.
2. For parents and caregivers: learn how to support your child’s healing with coaching
3. For providers and therapists: training in evidence-based care developed by the Child Mind Institute and removal of all admin tasks.
4. For payors: targeted-care based on clinically validated scales.
Our mission, and the outcome of these partnerships:
Open more paths to better care for more families.
Our unshakable belief:
We are stronger together.
What we’re looking for:
Partners.
