LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/MentalHealthAwarenessMonth?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#MentalHealthAwarenessMonthlt;/agt;–Catasys, Inc. (NASDAQ: CATS) (“Catasys” or the “Company”), a leading AI
and technology-enabled healthcare company, today announced that for
every day in the month of May, it is sponsoring a health plan member who
would otherwise not be able to participate in OnTrak, at no cost to
either the member or the health plan.
“Our mission is to help improve the health and save the lives of as many
people as possible,” commented Terren Peizer, Catasys Chairman and CEO.
“There is no better time than Mental Health Awareness Month to further
that mission by helping those in need.”
OnTrak is an integrated suite of interventions designed for health plan
members with unaddressed and often unidentified behavioral conditions
that worsen chronic medical comorbidities. Through the coordinated
efforts of Care Coaches, psychosocial and medical providers and
in-market Community Care Coordinators, members are motivated and
empowered to change behavior and improve their health and their lives.

artificial intelligence and telehealth, combined with human interaction,
to deliver improved member health and validated outcomes and savings to
health plans. Our mission is to help improve the health and save the
lives of as many people as possible.
Catasys’ integrated, technology-enabled OnTrak solution–contracted with
a growing number of national and regional health plans–is designed to
treat members with behavioral conditions that cause or exacerbate
co-existing medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, coronary

otherwise seek behavioral healthcare, leveraging proprietary enrollment
capabilities built on deep insights into the drivers of care avoidance.

delivered either in-person or via telehealth, along with care coaching
and in-market Community Care Coordinators. The program improves member
health and delivers validated cost savings to healthcare payers of more
