BayCal Health Providers

BayCal Health Providers is a United States company that uses telehealth to make behavioural health providers accessible to health centres serving their neighbourhood communities. Its stated priority is community health. BayCal works closely with health centres, taking time to understand their needs and their patient population, and adds value by bringing in qualified social workers to ensure a right fit. The company says it takes pride in playing a crucial role in helping health centres find providers who deliver value and share the mission and vision of its clients. It also works with providers and health centres to complete credentialing, privileging and background checks.

The company specialises in behavioural health for community health centres. Its clients work with patients to create and achieve behavioural health goals, offering consultation and assessments through individual and group sessions. Those services cover mental health, including prevention, assessment, diagnosis, treatment and intervention, and follow up of mental health conditions and disorders such as depression, anxiety, and attention deficit and disruptive behaviour disorders. They also cover substance abuse services, including screening, diagnosis and treatment for substance use disorders such as abuse of alcohol, tobacco and prescription drugs. BayCal states that better health outcomes cannot be achieved without better behavioural health, and that the habits, thoughts and emotions of each person are equally important.

BayCal Health Providers come from various cities and regions in the United States, and telehealth gives them the opportunity to serve patients from the comfort of their home office. Social workers placed by the company get the opportunity to work remotely and serve the high risk patients of its clients. Its providers have varied experience in improving the behavioural health of patients of all ages with emotional, mental, intellectual, social and developmental disabilities, co-occurring disorders, drug and alcohol addictions, and various other acute and chronic diagnoses.
