Digging through the Noise: Enhancing Behavioral Health Care with Digital Solutions

Claim CME on the AMA Ed Hub: https://edhub.ama-assn.org/steps-forward/video-player/18983384#quiz

Effective and sustainable integration of behavioral and mental health care into physician practices is critical to managing conditions such as #depression, #anxiety, and substance use disorder, alongside a patient’s physical health needs.  #Digitalhealth technologies have a role to play in enabling more timely access to whole-person care, but what’s working in practice? In recent years, a number of digital health companies have offered solutions such as virtual psychotherapy, self-guided learning modules, and patient self-management support and education, designed to help meet mental health needs. This webinar will explore how health care organizations are evaluating these solutions, including an overview of the Peterson Health Technology Institute’s latest assessment of the clinical effectiveness and budget impact of many available solutions in the market today.
