CVS HealthHUBs To Pilot Behavioral Health Services In 34 Locations

CVS Health is preparing to launch a behavioral health pilot program in 34 HealthHUB locations in four states. The pilot launched at 17 HealthHUB locations in three states: Florida (six locations), Pennsylvania (four locations); and Texas (seven locations). By July 2021, 17 more pilot locations are slated to open with six in New Jersey, one in Florida, three in Pennsylvania, and seven in Texas.

For the pilot the HealthHUBs, which provide consumers with care concierge services for chronic disease management and other primary and preventive care services, are working with the CVS MinuteClinic service, which provides direct medical services. Mental health counseling services are provided by a MinuteClinic® licensed therapist within a CVS® HealthHUB™ location. The social workers provide adults ages 18 and older with behavioral assessments, referrals, on-the-spot counseling, and personalized care plans.

The behavioral health services at the pilot HealthHUB locations are available during standard HealthHUB hours. Appointments are available days, evenings, and weekends. The sessions are held in private consultation rooms. The consumer can opt to for in-person face-to-face visits, or a telehealth session.

CVS Health is a different kind of health care company. It is a diversified health services company with nearly 300,000 employees united around a common purpose of helping people on their path to better health. In an increasingly connected and digital world, it meets people wherever they are and changing health care to meet their needs. Built on a foundation of unmatched community presence, the CVS Health diversified model engages one in three Americans each year. From its innovative new health care management services at HealthHUB locations, to transformative programs that help manage chronic conditions, CVS Health seeks to make health care more accessible, more affordable, and simply better.

This was reported by CVS Health in March 2021.

COVID-19 Risk Management Plan August 11, 2021

We are excited to return to sunny southern California for The 2021 OPEN MINDS Management Best Practices Institute at the picturesque Newport Beach Marriott Hotel & Spa, August 23-26, 2021. To help plan your in-person attendance, visit https://openminds.com/live-mbpi/ for a schedule of events happening throughout the week.

The resurgence of the COVID Delta variant has certainly created new challenges for the country and for our families. Fortunately, the available COVID vaccinations have been very successful in preventing symptomatic infections and illness. But I did want to let you know that our team at OPEN MINDS is committed to making our executive events as safe as possible and have an active risk management plan in place. I wanted to share with you the key elements of our plan:

Masking. Every participant will receive a mask as part of their registration materials. Unvaccinated people will be required to wear masks – and vaccinated attendees will be encouraged to wear masks. If the local or state governments have more restrictive standards (including mandatory masking or requiring proof of vaccination) at the time of our institutes, we will follow those standards.

Social Distancing. We are working with the event venue to hold all sessions in the largest possible rooms with seating as far apart as possible. In order to accomplish this, we ask that you select in advance the sessions you plan to attend in-person at the event venue. This will assist us with room and seating arrangements.

Outdoor Events. Where possible, we will use outdoor spaces for networking events and smaller sessions.

Hand Sanitation. Hand sanitation stations are available throughout the event venue and hand sanitizer is included in your registration materials, courtesy of our partner, Qualifacts+Credible.

Virtual Sessions. Every session will be partially or fully available in a virtual capacity:

We are livestreaming via GoToWebinar our plenary sessions – keynote addresses and plenary panels. You can participate online from your hotel room (or from your home office if you can’t attend on-site). We will be accepting questions from both the onsite and online audiences.
Each executive seminar is being offered at two separate times, one live at the event venue and the other exclusively for virtual attendees.
We are recording the audio for each session – and will post the audio along with presentation materials after each session.
A virtual exhibit hall will be available with access to all exhibitor contact information, product demos, and engagement opportunities.

We will continue to monitor any changes in the CDC recommendations for the continued safety of the public. If you have any concerns or questions, feel free to reach out to a member of our team at events@openminds.com or by phone at 877-350-6463. We look forward to seeing you at The 2021 OPEN MINDS Management Best Practices Institute.
