Case Study
Moda Health
Providing Moda Health members access to high-quality, inclusive mental healthcare during the pandemic
Moda Health is an Oregon-based payer with over 225,000 members. Since its founding in 1955, Moda Health has been committed to building healthier communities. As the pandemic took a toll on their members’ mental health, Moda’s behavioral health executives searched for a solution to ensure everyone’s access to quality mental healthcare.
Moda Health chose to deploy Meru Health’s Therapy Solution, with rapid delivery across all states. Their members received access to Meru Health’s 12-week online treatment program and continuous remote therapist support.
