In this episode, Brad Kittredge, CEO and co-founder of Brightside Health, discusses his company's mission to deliver life-saving mental healthcare to individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders, including those with elevated suicide risks. He explains how Brightside Health prioritizes underserved populations, expanding access to remote mental healthcare for Medicare recipients, teenagers, and individuals with substance abuse disorders. The company's comprehensive care model includes a national suicide prevention program based on the CAMHS framework, virtual intensive outpatient programs for substance use disorder through their acquisition of Lionrock Recovery, and a commitment to precision prescribing. Brightside Health’s differentiated approach addresses the high demand and limited in-network supply of mental health services by focusing on high-severity cases, aligning clinical and financial incentives, and providing comprehensive, virtual care.
