Anna, along with chief operating officer of AMITA Health, Chris Novak, MS, LCPC will present a unique model of collaboration/care guidelines between healthcare providers and the payer. As healthcare costs continue to rise and federal and state resources for behavioral health services continue to decrease, the need for standardization of evidence-based care guidelines in the behavioral health arena are more important than ever.

Mark your calendars for Thursday, May 17th at 9:40AM to attend their discussion on behavioral health!
