Date: Wednesday, November 10, 2021

Time: 2:00 pm ET | 11:00am PT

Cost: Complimentary

Sponsored by: 

Many organizations have hesitated, in the past, to provide more than the most basic mental health resources for employees, if any were provided at all. Gauging the financial impact of investing in a mental health benefit has been a challenge for employers — until now.

  • A deeper dive on claims reductions across service categories—from Rx to inpatient/facility care and more
  • The impact a mental health solution can have on overall medical spend
