To improve healthcare outcomes for individuals seeking support for behavioral solutions, Aptihealth has played a pivotal role since its inception in 2017. Aptihealth partners directly with health systems and plans to help integrate better support at point-of-care, delivering population-precise programs for children, adolescents, and adults of every level.
Designing an innovative system to provide better, quicker help, Aptihealth has embraced its opportunity to spread solutions following the COVID-19 pandemic.
Let’s take a closer look at how Aptihealth is impacting behavioral health solutions through innovative full-system offerings.
Innovative Digital Health Services
Communities throughout the United States are underserved in behavioral health services, and this issue seems poised to continue growing in the coming years lest there be some intervention.
The COVID-19 pandemic spurred on a burgeoning mental health epidemic, as noted by the W.H.O. with their numbers of behavioral health concerns among individuals in the U.S.
The most commonly diagnosed behavioral disorders in the United States afflict roughly one-fifth of all adults. The three most common conditions include
- Depressive Disorders – Roughly 21 million adults in the United States are impacted by depression. Depression also affects many teenagers, touching upon nearly 2.5 million individuals aged 12 to 17.
- Posttraumatic Stress Disorders – Traumatic events, including kidnapping, violence, assault, and other traumas, can lead to posttraumatic stress disorder. PTSD impacts roughly 12 million adults in the United States.
- Anxiety Disorders – America’s umbrella of anxiety disorders impacts more than 42 million adults. Conditions include panic disorder, OCD, and generalized anxiety.
To address these burgeoning issues, Aptihealth developed a business model that drives businesses to deliver effective results while driving large-scale evolution.
