Incredible outcomes begin with accessible care
Only one-tenth of the people who need care for substance use or mental health in the United States receive it. At Workit, it’s our mission to ensure that cost never stops someone from receiving the treatment they need.
Welcome Humana and Anthem of Ohio
This year, we joined the Humana network nationally, and partnered with Anthem in Ohio to ensure that Ohioans can receive evidence-based care at the moment they’re ready.
Committed to accepting Medicaid in all 50 states
40% of Workit members are covered by Medicaid, and our continued partnerships with organizations such as drug courts, hospitals, and county governments ensures access to the underinsured and uninsured.
Over 110 million lives covered and counting
Over 236 health plans partner with Workit Health to provide substance use and mental health care to their members, driving greater access, choice, and price transparency to our health plan partners through full lifecycle detection and treatment.
Backed by NIDA and NIH
In August, the National Institute on Drug Abuse awarded Workit Health a grant to build a fully-integrated chatbot for substance use disorder. Workit was also awarded grant funding from the National Institute on Drug Abuse and the National Institutes of Health to focus on interoperability improvements, making it easier for our members to receive care and for our clinicians to provide it.
Rooted in health equity
Diverse care teams are at the forefront of Workit Health’s patient-centered care. Women, people of color, and the LGBTQIA+ community are traditionally underrepresented in healthcare. Workit prides itself on its dedication to cultivating diverse care teams to ensure an inclusive member experience that builds trust between clinician and patient.
