In this
capacity he will be responsible for the Company’s
sales and marketing efforts to capitalize on the strong interest it has
seen in its Catasys(TM) integrated substance
abuse program. The current economic downtrend combined with an increasing medical cost
trend is leading health plans and other payors to seek viable new
strategies for reducing their costs. This is especially true for payors
after the passage of The Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health
Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008, which requires that health
plans that provide mental health or addiction coverage do so on terms
that are no less favorable than coverage for medical conditions, which
is expected to lead to additional costs for health plans. By managing
substance dependence treatmentlike other chronic diseases,including
integration ofmedical treatment, behavioral treatment andcare
coaching, Catasys seeks toprovide healthcareplans with the ability to
obtain better outcomes, reduce the incidence of high cost acute care,
and lower costs on payors’ most expensive
substance dependent members. “The interest that Hythiam is currently seeing
from health plans is a testament to the value that health plans see in
Catasys’s pioneering the integration of care
for substance dependence to enhance treatment outcomes while reducing
costs,” said Greg McLane.
