Integrate proven behavioral health services into your OB practice.
Using a collaborative care model, we equip your practice with psychiatric consultants, licensed therapists, and certified Perinatal Behavioral Health Coaches trained in perinatal mental health to provide virtual and in-person mental health care for your pregnant & postpartum patients.
Benefits to Your Practice
Implement a proven model
The collaborative care model (CoCM) is a proven, evidence-based approach with over 90 randomized control trials establishing its validity across multiple medical specialties, including in obstetrics.
Improve clinical outcomes & reduce health disparities
In the perinatal patient population, the collaborative care model decreases depressive symptoms by at least 50%, reduces health disparities, & improves access to care.
Capture untapped revenue
The collaborative care model was adopted by Medicare in 2017, and many state Medicaid & commercial payers have adopted the model nationwide. Studies show that the return-on-investment for clinical depression is $6.50 for every $1 invested in collaborative care.
