Reliq Health Technologies, Inc. Announces New Contract with Blum Telehealth to Provide its iUGO Care Platform to over 50,000 Medicare Patients in Louisiana
“We are very pleased to be working with Blum Telehealth to bring our iUGO Care Chronic Care Management (CCM) and Behavioral Health Integration (BHI) solutions to more than 50,000 patients throughout Louisiana,” said Dr. Lisa Crossley, CEO of Reliq Health Technologies, Inc. “We will be working with over 150 Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) and Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) in Louisiana, providing our iUGO Care software, as well as support services through our call center in Port St Lucie, Florida. We’ll begin onboarding CCM patients to our platform in April and will expand to include BHI patients in Q3 of this calendar year. Each patient on the platform will generate between $30 and $100 USD per month in revenue, depending on the modules and services required for the given patient. We expect to complete onboarding of all patients within the next 12 months.”
Integrating behavioral health care with primary care can improve outcomes for the millions of Americans with mental or behavioral health conditions. Eligible conditions include any mental, behavioral health, or psychiatric condition being treated by the billing practitioner, including substance use disorders. Behavioral health integration enhances standard primary care by adding two key services: care management support for patients receiving behavioral health treatment and regular psychiatric inter-specialty consultation. The iUGO Care Behavioral Health Integration (BHI) module allows clinicians to leverage the billing codes introduced by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for Psychiatric Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) services and General BHI services. The iUGO Care BHI module enables care coordination, secure communication and time tracking for the three clinical roles that must work together to deliver CoCM and General BHI services: the Behavioral Health Care Manager, the Psychiatric Consultant and the Treating (Billing) Practitioner.
