Modern Healthcare (12/29, Devereaux, Subscription Publication) reports, “Supporting telehealth companies is nothing new for insurers, but a COVID-19 windfall and an explosion in demand for mental healthcare during the pandemic have led payers toward virtual therapy platforms as a way to reduce costs and provide better benefits.” This year, “large insurers’ investing arms contributed to significantly more funding rounds for ‘telebehavioral’ health companies than during previous years.”
