Quantum Health, the leading consumer healthcare navigation and care coordination company, announced the addition of four new mental health solutions to its suite of Comprehensive Care Solutions. These new Preferred Partners will expand access to leading mental health services for employees and ease administrative burden for employers. The expansion of these programs comes at a time when the pandemic, burnout and the Great Resignation have significantly impacted mental health. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 62 million Americans experience mental health challenges. Meanwhile, 24.7% of people with mental illness report an unmet need for treatment.

“Mental health is a growing challenge for employers,” said Shannon Skaggs, president of Quantum Health. “Not only does it impact their employees’ wellbeing and workplace productivity, but it is also closely linked to a myriad of other physical health conditions. By adding these high-value, innovative behavioral health solutions to our family of Preferred Partners, employers can more easily expand care options for their employees and make it easier to access and use covered benefits that support mental wellbeing and behavioral health.”
Behavioral and mental health services are tightly integrated into what Quantum Health provides its navigation clients today. The company’s teams of Healthcare Warriors™ and behavioral health management nurses regularly collaborate with members and providers on all aspects of these services, including confirming coverage details and provider network status, securing precertifications, conducting depression screenings, addressing social determinants of health (SDOH), conducting concurrent reviews to assess discharge readiness and care transitions, and ensuring appropriate care coordination across a member’s care team.
The new class of partners are the latest addition to Quantum Health‘s Comprehensive Care Solutions, a suite of fully vetted digital health solutions that deliver proven results while making it easier for employers to offer leading health benefit programs to their members. When employers choose partners within its Comprehensive Care Solutions, Quantum Health does the heavy lifting for HR teams by validating results for clinical and service quality, assessing appropriate technology security, overseeing and streamlining technology integration, and providing performance reports and analytics.
