Today is World Suicide Prevention Day, and it's crucial we talk about how to support those who might be struggling. Last year, over 13.2 million American adults considered suicide—a number too large to ignore. Sometimes, even those closest to us can feel overwhelmed and unable to find a way out during tough times. It's important to recognize these moments and offer support. Let’s learn how to help someone with suicidal thoughts – visit our blog for practical tips and valuable insights. Together, we can make a difference. 💙 https://lnkd.in/egHsCFrq #SuicidePreventionMonth #MentalHealthAwareness #BeThere

Looking back at last week’s #AHIP2024 conference, there were many exciting themes that came up! Here are some of the AbleTo team's highlights: 👥 Healthcare access is a growing priority: While this theme has been top-of-mind for years, the increasing focus around social determinants of health among CMS, health plans, and other stakeholders has emphasized the need for solutions. 💻 Virtual mental healthcare is important in addressing access issues: AbleTo was honored to be mentioned by clients as a solution to their access challenges. From convenient appointment times to customizable program lengths, we aim to provide care unique to each person’s needs. We were also happy to hear of innovations like primary care providers providing onsite technology access for virtual mental health support! 🏥 Integrations between behavioral health and clinical services like oncology and pain management are on the rise: This trend is vital for whole-person care. We’re leading with targeted mental healthcare for individuals with life-changing physical health diagnoses, empowering them with professional guidance and resilience-building skills and tools. AHIP 2024 was full of exciting conversations and these were just a few of the themes we heard. Did you attend?

Mental Health Awareness Month is an opportunity for us to come together and break the stigmas around mental health through advocacy and education. This year, we asked our clinicians to shed light on myths providers often come across and how to address them. Have you had to debunk any of these myths (or others) in your practice? Let us know how you’d respond in the comments below 👇 #MHAM2024 #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth2024 #MentalHealth #SelfCare

At AbleTo, we aim to make high-quality behavioral care easier to access. We do this by ensuring our products and programs–ranging from on-demand self care to clinical therapy–are based on evidence and industry best practices. Earlier this month, Sarah Gaffey, LCSW co-presented in a webinar with leadership from URAC, CTeL, and Gateway Rehab about the value of research and data-driven care in telehealth. As Sarah explains, this was a great opportunity to highlight the value of AbleTo’s evidence-based approach that helps us to deliver the right level of support to our participants across the country: “It was incredibly worthwhile to have a chance to highlight the expertise and high standards inherent to our organization: We have experts dedicated to ensuring that we have data insights that enable us to effectively resource our providers, and our talented clinical teams also use data to monitor quality and outcomes and take action if gaps are identified. Importantly, our accreditation with URAC ties this all together and holds us accountable to this rigor. ” This webinar allowed listeners to learn not only about approaches to managing care quality in the present, but also the importance of research, policy, and engagement trends that help behavioral health organizations to scale and continuously improve our approaches for the future. It’s an exciting time to be part of the telehealth industry!
