Eligible commercial and Medicare Advantage plan members in these states are now able to participate in OnTrak-A, an integrated 52-week program that identifies, engages and treats members with unaddressed behavioral health conditions that impact co-morbid medical conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension, coronary artery disease, COPD, and congestive heart failure, resulting in high medical costs. With this expansion, the OnTrak program is now available in 22 states to members of major health plans.

“This expansion demonstrates this national plan’s continued confidence in our ability to improve the health of their members and deliver savings to the national plan as they continue to roll us out into additional states,” said Rick Anderson, President and Chief Operating Officer of Catasys. “We look forward to assisting members in all 11 states where we are contracted with this partner to achieve better health and better lives.”
