Molina adds mental healthcare app for teenagers

Molina Healthcare of California is partnering with digital behavioral health company BeMe to provide teenagers with mental health support. 

According to a Nov. 1 news release, the BeMe app provides activities and one-on-one coaching to provide support and coping skills for teenagers. 

In California, 64 percent of teenagers with symptoms of depression did not receive care, according to a 2022 report cited in the release. 

The BeMe app was developed in collaboration with a teen advisory board. 

"Molina is dedicated to improving the lives and well-being of its members and communities," Abbie Totten, plan president of Molina Healthcare of California, said in the release. "Young people are tomorrow's leaders, and we must do everything in our power to recognize and support them through the bumpy road to young adulthood and beyond."
