Solera Health includes Ginger and eMindful to expand digital mental healthcare platform

Solera expands mental health network with new partners Ginger and eMindful (Fierce Healthcare):

Solera Health, a platform that links people with a curated collection of health solutions, is adding mental health companies Ginger and eMindful to its network of partners.

Ginger, a provider of on-demand virtual mental health care, and eMindful, which offers evidence-based mindfulness programs, will join Solera’s mental and behavioral health network, where an algorithm will connect patients with the programs best suited to their needs.

Previously, Solera announced a partnership with meditation and mindfulness app Headspace in June.

The inclusion of two more providers rounds out what the company considers its “MVP network,” CEO Mary Langowski told Fierce Healthcare.

“This proliferation of digital vendors is making it a lot easier for people to access these services, and addressing what is a real crisis in this country, not just among older adults but among younger adults as well who don’t want to access these systems in a traditional way,” she said.
