Catasys Launches Enrollment of OnTrak-H with Leading National Health Insurer

Catasys, Inc. (NASDAQ:CATS), a leading AI and technology-enabled healthcare company, announced today that it has launched enrollment of its OnTrak-H solution with a leading national health plan partner. Eligible Commercial members in 16 states will now be able to take advantage of OnTrak-H, an integrated 52-week program that identifies, engages and treats members with untreated behavioral health conditions and high medical costs. OnTrak-H specifically addresses substance use disorders. Effectively engaging and treating members with substance use disorders can significantly improve the quality of members’ lives while providing a tremendous cost savings to the plan. As part of this deployment Catasys will integrate new artificial intelligence capabilities to identify those who are suffering from substance use disorders even if they have not yet been diagnosed. As behavioral health conditions, such as substance use disorders, are significantly underdiagnosed, these expanded machine learning/artificial intelligence capabilities are expected to meaningfully expand the number of eligible members.

“This deployment should have a positive impact on revenues in 2018 and beyond,” said Rick Anderson, President and Chief Operating Officer of Catasys. “The number of eligible lives for OnTrak has increased significantly through this and other recently announced relationships. In addition, the use of our expanding AI tools represents yet another way we are delivering value to our customers and expanding the number of members we can help. We are excited about continuing to deliver artificial intelligence tools driven by our extensive outcomes and unparalleled experience with the OnTrak solution.”

OnTrak-H is now available to eligible Commercial plan members of this leading health insurer in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
