It is a ripe time for quality behavioral health organizations to be included and incorporated into organized systems of payment and care to drive improved care for people and populations. We are a team of behavioral health experts with a strong knowledge base dedicated to growing competencies for behavioral health organizations by combining experiential operational competency development, population health data, analytics, and technology solutions to enable integrated patient care, Our partnership with OPEN MINDS enhances our role as an industry thought leader.”
