“The MHT alerts help to facilitate patients to a higher level of care in a seamless and timely fashion.”

Problem
Some of the surrounding behavioral health clinic's weren't able to accommodate our patient's mental health needs. This was either because they didn't take the patient's insurance, or there was too long of a waitlist to be seen. Also, when patients would score high on a depression or anxiety screening, it's hard to capture every single patient that needed to be referred to a behavioural health partner solution.
-
Solution / Implementation
MHT created Alerts associated with assessments where if a patient scored above a certain threshold, the referral clinic would have a care coordinator who would be alerted of the patient scoring high. They also connected us to a TelePsych partner that was able to accommodate our patient's mental health needs. Alert's were set up and patient's needs were taken care of in a timely fashion.
-
Benefit
No patient slipped through the cracks. The care coordinator was able to capture every patient needing a higher level of care through a simple automated email. Patient's also recieved mental health care quicker this way then before.

“Getting a convenient and flexible way to properly screen patients regarding their mental health has really added to the level of patient care that we provide. The MHT platform is easy to use and the MHT team has been great to work with. We also are now qualifying those patients in need to receive assistance from our telepsych partner as well. Overall, it has been a great partnership.”
