Currently, mental health conditions are at epidemic proportions. In the US, 28 percent of people have depression, while 36 percent suffer from anxiety¹, and 41 percent reported mental health disorders within the last year, two times more than in 2019². The National Alliance on Mental Health estimates that 55 percent of people with mental illness are not receiving treatment, and there is a projected shortage of up to 30,000 psychiatrists in the US by 2024. This explosive growth, coupled with the difficulty in accessing the right treatment for many populations, is part of the impetus for the Ellipsis Health and Ceras Health partnership. Together, the companies plan to bring greater access to mental health treatment for the more than 18 million Medicare patients who have mental health conditions.

“This new partnership will advance the state of mental health care, enabling Ellipsis Health to put its cutting-edge voice technology to work – identifying people in need and then connecting them into integrated behavioral health services,” said Mainul Mondal, founder and CEO, Ellipsis Health. “We are proud to partner with Ceras Health, an organization that shares our commitment to using innovative technology to ensure that those in need have access to the right care at the right time, with the potential to transform how mental healthcare is identified, monitored and delivered.”
