–Signed 22 Health Insurance Carriers in 2022–
–Provides Concierge Teletherapy Mental Health Services to Healthcare Professionals in Need–
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Marvin (the "Company"), the market leader in behavioral health services for healthcare professionals, announced today that it will exit 2022 with approximately 17 million lives under coverage, which is defined as the total number of healthcare professionals with access to its mental health program. To ensure the services it provides to healthcare professionals are covered by insurance, Marvin successfully signed contracts with 22 health insurance carriers in 2022.
Marvin is the first mental health program designed specifically to support physicians, nurses and other medical professionals. Marvin partners with hospital systems and residency programs to offer professionals access to its concierge mental health program. The Company works with these health systems to help evaluate system-wide burnout and to recommend changes to address the underlying drivers of mental health issues. Patients receive support from licensed therapists and all interactions are confidential and HIPAA-compliant.
"The tremendous growth we achieved over the past year is a clear indication of the unmet need amongst healthcare workers for mental health services and support. Over the past year, it has become evident that access to effective mental health services is key to reducing high turnover, absenteeism and burnout of healthcare professionals," said John Bracaglia, co-founder and CEO of Marvin. "Marvin is committed to working with health systems and insurance payers to ensure that health system partners offer coverage of these vital services for their employees. Our goal is for all medical professionals to have not only the right coverage, but access to Marvin therapists who have the cultural competency and full understanding of the life of a healthcare professional."
Unlike traditional mental health providers, Marvin is available 24 hours a day to accommodate healthcare professionals' long hours and varying schedules. Partnering with Dr. Mickey Trockel, Director of Evidence Based Innovation for the Stanford University School of Medicine WellMD Center, Marvin has integrated cutting-edge research in clinician behavioral health into its offering, resulting in a highly-tailored clinical model to support this unique population of professionals. Partnering with self-insured health systems and insurance payers, Marvin offers a value-based care (VBC) model that focuses on clinical outcomes.
This focus has resulted in the number of new insurance contracts signed. These insurance companies include:
- United Healthcare / Optum (national)
- Aetna (national)
- Cigna (national)
- Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts
- Anthem Blue Cross of California
- Anthem Blue Cross of Georgia
