How COVID-19 spurred a mental health crisis + the critical role virtual care will play


This webinar is on-demand and can be viewed at your convenience.

A new study shows that 1 in 3 people infected with COVID-19 are also diagnosed with a mental health or neurological condition, including anxiety, mood disorder, substance use disorders and insomnia. It is also becoming increasingly apparent the pandemic has had serious implications on the mental health of the general population, brought on by isolation, fear, anxiety and fatigue.

During this webinar, Amwell’s Director of Psychological Services, Lindsay Henderson, PsyD, will discuss common mental health conditions and causes she is most commonly seeing via telehealth, and Marie Renzi, director of marketing and health plan and employer engagement, will outline how health plans should be thinking differently about engaging members in a virtual behavioral health benefit.

Join the webinar to learn:
 
  • How anxiety around reopening, vaccine rollouts and pandemic fatigue is driving virtual visits
  • Best practices for offering virtual behavioral health services and engaging members
  • The role virtual primary care can plan in driving members to mental health support
