Many challenges face organized systems of care supporting those with serious mental illness worldwide. In the U.S., 11.8% of individuals discharged from hospital care with a mental health diagnosis will be readmitted within 30 days and more than 37% will be readmitted within 1 year. The total annual cost of the mentally ill in U.S. jail and prison systems estimated at $15 billion.

Join leaders from Otsuka and IBM to discover an innovative approach that combines the coordination of care, predictive analytics, and mental health expertise to help providers and communities reduce hospital readmissions and re-incarcerations.

Learn how this new solution will help improve:
  • Utilization management, including eligibility, enrollment and consent
  • Coordination of care across clinical and social programs settings
  • Insights into patient risk factors, crisis onset, crisis patterns, and costs
  • Patient engagement in care management plan
  • Organizational change management support
