A Platform That Fully Supports Behavioral Health

Behavioral health has emerged as a critical function of the healthcare continuum like never before. Care teams play an imperative role in bridging the gap between mental health and clinical care, requiring a solution that allows them to work seamlessly across both domains. The HELIOS® platform addresses this requirement head on by providing a whole person view, comprehensive assessments, and collaborative workflows that empower teams to proactively address both physical and behavioral needs. From large-scale community-based populations to facility-based cohorts with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), HELIOS® has been leveraged to manage the full continuum of care.

Drive Better Outcomes with a Whole Person Approach

The whole person approach is changing how we think about healthcare and transforming regulatory frameworks, medical methodologies, and clinical operations. By using the HELIOS® platform, the country's leading healthcare organizations - including both those that were traditionally more physical health focused and those that were more behavioral health focused - have successfully transitioned toward more holistic medical management models.

If you are interested in learning more about the whole person approach, we warmly welcome you to listen to our webinar with UPMC and Quartet Health titled  "Better Mental Health Outcomes Through Whole Person Care".

Dedicated Suite of Behavioral Health Tools

Unlike other care management solutions where behavioral health is an add-on, VirtualHealth offers behavioral health as a core capability. A number of our initial clients were national innovators in the highly complex and resource-intensive IDD space and this early-stage collaboration ensured that behavioral health was given tremendous focus in the development of the HELIOS® platform. From our libraries of patient health questionnaires (PHQ) and behavioral-focused care plans to our protected diagnoses and regulatory reporting capabilities to our deep in-house expertise and notable client partnerships around behavioral health, we offer a proven track record in this critical area of medical management.
