奥奈达市,纽约 ——今天, 卓越的蓝十字蓝盾 in partnership with 十大靠谱网赌平台 announced the 卓越的蓝十字蓝盾 Member and Community Health Improvement (MACHI) grant to support increased access to behavioral health services at 十大靠谱网赌平台.

奖学金将授予150美元,000 over a three-year period to establish services to address mental health, 药物滥用, or age-specific women’s behavioral health conditions of 十大靠谱网赌平台 patients receiving care at its Women’s Health practice, 中心的摇篮曲, 或急诊科(ED).

The Member and Community Health Improvement (MACHI) grant program provides funding to local, nonprofit organizations that share 卓越的蓝十字蓝盾’s vision for healthier communities. These multi-year grants support initiatives with specific objectives and measurable outcomes for improving health. The company’s corporate giving follows all applicable laws and regulations and does not support funding organizations that conflict with its corporate mission, 目标, 政策, 或产品.

“Providing access to high-quality health care is core to our mission as a nonprofit health plan,伊芙·范德沃尔说, regional president of 卓越的蓝十字蓝盾. “We are excited to partner with 十大靠谱网赌平台 to support this vital behavioral health program that addresses the needs of our region by increasing access to mental health and substance use services.”

The new Women’s Care Coordination Program at 十大靠谱网赌平台 is primarily designed to bridge the gap between patients and access to mental health and 药物滥用 treatment services through a care-coordinated model. 只有一个接触点, patients will now be able to receive coordinated care to a range of community resources and services that are available for women including but not limited to; mental health and 药物滥用 counseling, 丧亲的支持, 运输, 家庭暴力倡导, 护理管理, and other community services that promote overall health and wellness.

“The 新型冠状病毒肺炎 pandemic has exacerbated the mental and behavioral health crisis we are facing in our communities,总裁兼首席执行官乔纳森·席勒说. “The need for coordinated behavioral health services has never been greater and represents a significant clinical health improvement priority for our medical staff and clinical team. 通过Excellus BCBS提供的支持, we will be able to connect a critical network of services and resources that already exist within our communities to improve the outcomes and lives of our patients.”

有了这个程序, 十大靠谱网赌平台 aims to increase depression screenings for maternity and gynecological patients by 70% and to reduce return ED visits of those presenting with behavioral and mental health conditions by 17%. Achievement of these initiatives will drive early detection and treatment of behavioral health conditions and reduction in unnecessary return visits to the ED which may result in long-term hospitalization and more comprehensive care.

“We thank Excellus BCBS for their shared vision in addressing opportunities to improve the overall health of our communities,席勒说. “This program would not be possible without their support.”
