Sutter Partners With Concert Health on Collaborative Care Program
Healthcare Innovation December 3, 2024
Goal is to enhance behavioral healthcare services for patients by making treatment more timely and accessible
Beginning in January, California-based Sutter will coordinate with Concert Health to co-manage treatment for patients who experience a broad range of behavioral health disorders. The service will initially be available to patients in four Northern California cities.
Sutter patients who report a behavioral health concern to their primary care provider will be connected with Concert Health via phone or video within 24 to 48 hours to monitor symptoms and medications and provide evidence-based counseling interventions. Concert Health’s psychiatric providers will review patient cases regularly, provide feedback and guidance to the behavioral health team, and make specific treatment recommendations to the Sutter primary care providers.
