DALLAS – Baylor Scott & White Health, Texas' largest not-for-profit health system, and Geode Health, a multi-state provider of in-person and virtual comprehensive mental healthcare, announce a new joint venture aimed at increasing access to high-quality outpatient mental health services for Texans.
The partnership is built around one simple idea: care should meet people where they are — whether that's in person or online — by creating more ways for individuals and families to get the support they need, when they need it.
"Timely access to behavioral healthcare remains one of our customers' greatest pain points," said Pete McCanna, chief executive officer of Baylor Scott & White Health. "By integrating Geode's expertise with our unique digital platform, broad footprint and high-quality care ecosystem, we will fill a critical need and advance whole-person health for those we serve."
"At Geode, our mission is to increase access to mental healthcare that is affordable and effective," said Gaurav Bhattacharyya, chief executive officer of Geode Health. "We are thrilled to partner with Baylor Scott & White Health to offer a full spectrum of outpatient mental health services, including psychiatry, psychotherapy, TMS and more, delivered via a hybrid in-person and virtual platform that is convenient, tailored to individual needs and in-network with all major insurance plans."
Individuals of all ages can now access these services through the MyBSWHealth digital platform or directly on book.geodehealth.com. Geode Health currently operates 13 locations in Texas; in partnership with Baylor Scott & White, it plans to add 10 more locations over the next year and continue expanding access each year after.
