Pennsylvania Mental Health Integration Improves Through Highmark & Quartet Partnership

A partnership between Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield (Highmark) and Quartet, a technology company focused on integrating mental health into primary care, is expanding mental health care into western Pennsylvania. The partnership first launched in mid-2016 in Pittsburgh, and proved to improve integration of consumers' mental health care into primary care.

Quartet identifies Highmark members who may have undiagnosed mental health conditions, and those with mental health conditions who are not in treatment or could benefit from additional support. The platform then allows primary care physicians to consult with psychiatrists to establish treatment. Quartet also offers online consumer support . . .
