Behavioral health

The behavioral health crisis won't change — unless we do. Without a radical shift in approach, we risk backsliding on progress toward behavioral health and health equity goals, having negative business implications across sectors. Our work uncovers the tangible steps leaders must take to meaningfully and equitably restructure the behavioral healthcare system.


Featured Insights

Tackle these challenges

Behavioral health leaders understand the current challenges in behavioral healthcare and may need to make the case to their leadership for added investment to address issues like inequities in behavioral health or the behavioral healthcare workforce shortage. Use data to articulate the problem, but also pair it with an understanding of the root causes of today’s challenges.

Not all organizations have a robust strategic function for the behavioral health side of their business. Assess where you fall on the maturity model and select key metrics to track progress moving forward.

Then, review sector-specific guidance on long-term solutions for behavioral health available for provider organizationshealth plansdigital health organizationslife sciences, and employers. And all health care leaders can advocate for these state and federal policies.

Cross-industry partnerships are essential to achieve structural change in the behavioral healthcare system. Take the time to understand the complex system and each players’ relative strengths and weaknesses.
