The payer collaborated with mental health education platform Psych Hub to “arm Aetna practitioners with no-cost, evidence-based instruction, tools and resources to identify and treat those at risk of suicide,” a June 21 news release said.
The program includes a series of eLearning courses designed by Psych Hub and experts from New York City-based Columbia University, Philadelphia-based University of Pennsylvania and Cambridge, Mass.-based Harvard University. Aetna providers will receive certification in suicide prevention after completing the courses and submitting a case study assignment, according to the statement.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Fall Payer Issues Roundtable, taking place November 2–3 in Chicago, payer executives and healthcare leaders will come together to discuss value-based care, regulatory changes, cost management strategies and innovations shaping the future of payer-provider collaboration.
