Aptihealth provides virtual behavioral health services that connect patients to comprehensive mental health and substance abuse support. Through their digital platform and behavioral health provider network, MVP customers have options for integrated care that remove traditional access barriers and provide virtual visits to engage this high-need population. The partnership focuses on serving complex patient populations with conditions such as psychosis, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and personality disorders with personalized care plans.

Michelle explains, "MVP provides coverage for all lines of business, including commercial Medicare, Medicaid, Child Health Plus, and Essential Plan enrollees. We provide all of the healthcare needs of our customers, and our mission is to improve our customers’ health and provide peace of mind to our customers by helping them access quality healthcare that meets their needs. Our mission is also to create healthier communities through innovation and collaboration, which is why we’re excited to partner with Aptihealth."
