A behavioral health care network for self-funded employers.

Care this serious
has to be curated.

When someone on your plan needs behavioral health treatment, they get one navigator who stays with them across every episode, every level of care, for as long as they're covered. Not a referral. A relationship.

That's what curated was built to do.

How It Works

Someone you cover is struggling.
What happens next is nobody's job.

So we made it ours.

One navigator. Every episode. Every level of care. For as long as they're on the plan. Same-day access. Vetted programs. Measured outcomes. And a longitudinal record that shows whether the care trajectory is working.

1

They talk to a clinician,
not a call center.

A licensed navigator matches your employee to a program based on diagnosis, acuity, clinical history, what's worked before, and where they're willing to go. Not whoever answers the phone first.

2

The program earned its way
into the network.

Vetted on completion rates, readmission rates, credentials, and measured outcomes. If a program can't show us its numbers, it doesn't get in. The episode is bundled. The price is set before care begins. The member pays nothing.

3

We find out
if it worked.

Validated instruments at intake, discharge, and 90 days. PHQ-9 for depression. GAD-7 for anxiety. AUDIT-C for substance use. Retention rates for MAT. You hold the evidence. Not a hope that it went well.

If the member is readmitted within 30 days, we cover the second episode.
No behavioral health company offers this. We can because every program in the network earned its place on measured completion rates and readmission data. The warranty isn't a marketing promise. It's a bet on our own network curation.
No downstream economic interest.
Every integrated platform routes to its own clinicians first. We don't own the programs. We don't profit from which one gets chosen. The navigator's only job is to match the member to the program with the best outcomes for their situation.
Executive Briefing Employer Brief
Want to see what this looks like for your population?

One navigator.
Every episode.
Getting smarter each time.

The relationship is the product. The intelligence layer makes every match sharper, every prediction earlier, and every network decision evidence-based.

Predict
Designed to identify risk before crisis.
Claims history signals which members are heading toward high-acuity care. The layer surfaces those signals so navigators reach out before the $50K episode, not after.
Match
Matching based on measured outcomes.
Surface the programs with the strongest outcome history for this member's profile. The navigator still decides. The algorithm narrows the field.
Reward
Pay-for-performance network.
Top-quartile programs get preferred referral volume. The network doesn't just remove underperformers. It rewards the ones that produce results. Quality compounds.
The data moat. Every episode measured. Every outcome documented. Every program scored. After two years, curated holds the only independent quality dataset for high-acuity behavioral health programs in the country. The predictions get sharper. The matches get better. The network improves itself.

You're not a claim number.
You're a person who asked for help.

The difference between the right program and the wrong one is the difference between getting better and starting over. That difference shouldn't come down to who picks up the phone when you call.

I didn't know who to call. I didn't know what my options were. I just knew I needed help and I was afraid of what it would cost and who would find out.

You pay nothing. No deductible, no copay, no coinsurance. Your employer covers the full episode because they chose to invest in getting this right.

One person, the whole way. A licensed clinician who knows your situation, your history, and your preferences. Not a new voice every time you call.

Programs that earned their place. We checked. Completion rates, readmission rates, clinical outcomes. We don't send you somewhere and hope for the best.

We don't disappear. 90 days of follow-up after every episode. And your navigator stays assigned for as long as you're on the plan. If something comes up six months or two years later, you call the same person who was there the first time.

Clinical Areas

The whole arc.
Not just one slice of it.

Most mental health vendors cover one modality. We cover the full trajectory: crisis to stabilization to treatment to recovery to monitoring. People don't show up with one problem. They show up with a constellation. The system that sees the whole picture is the one that produces outcomes worth measuring.

+
Acute Psychiatric
Crisis stabilization and inpatient care.

Programs in our network are measured on 30-day readmission rates. We track stabilization outcomes, time-to-placement, and post-discharge follow-through. The member gets to the right placement, not just the nearest one.

+
Intensive Outpatient
The structured middle ground.

Mental health and substance use IOP with measured completion rates. The step between residential and weekly therapy, where the work of recovery actually compounds. We vet on who finishes, not who enrolls.

+
Partial Hospitalization
Structured day program. 5+ hours.

Sits between IOP and residential. The member goes home at night but receives intensive treatment during the day. A major cost driver with wide quality variance. Measured on completion, step-down rates, and clinical improvement.

+
Psych Med Management
Telehealth psychiatry. Monitoring. Labs.

Medication monitoring for members on antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, and controlled substances. Lithium levels, metabolic panels, drug screening, adherence tracking. At-home labs integrated so members don't need a clinic visit for the bloodwork that keeps them safe.

+
Eating Disorder
Among the hardest episodes to get right.

Residential, IOP, and specialized outpatient therapy vetted on clinical outcomes, not marketing. Treatment duration, weight restoration, relapse indicators, nutritional counseling continuity. Few vendors even attempt to measure these. We require it for network inclusion and coordinate the full arc from inpatient through outpatient maintenance.

+
SUD Residential
28 to 90 days. Measured recovery.

We know which programs keep people in recovery because we measure completion, readmission, and 6-month follow-up. If a program can't show those numbers, it isn't in our network. After discharge, the navigator coordinates step-down to outpatient therapy and ongoing support so the transition isn't a cliff.

+
MAT Programs
Buprenorphine. Naltrexone. Retention tracked.

Medication-assisted treatment with 6-month retention as the benchmark. Because 30-day enrollment means nothing if the member isn't still engaged at month six. That's when the clinical evidence says it counts.

+
Medically Supervised Detox
The first 72 hours.

Safe, monitored, and connected to what comes next. Detox without a transition plan is a revolving door. Every detox placement in our network includes a documented pathway to the next level of care.

+
Crisis Stabilization
The alternative to the ER.

Faster access, lower cost, better psychiatric outcomes than emergency department boarding. For members in acute psychiatric crisis, the ER is a holding pen. A crisis stabilization unit is a clinical environment. After stabilization, the navigator connects the member to the right next step.

+
PTSD & Trauma
Residential, IOP, and specialized outpatient.

One of the highest-cost BH conditions in commercial populations. First responders, healthcare workers, military-connected employees. Residential and IOP programs vetted on PCL-5 outcomes. The quality variance between trauma-focused programs is extreme and almost entirely unmeasured.

+
Dual Diagnosis
Co-occurring mental health and substance use.

The hardest, highest-cost population. Most vendors route these members to a mental health program or a SUD program. Neither is right. Dual diagnosis requires integrated treatment: residential or IOP programs that treat both simultaneously, with coordinated outpatient therapy and psychiatric care after discharge.

+
Adolescent & Teen
Residential, IOP, and outpatient for young people.

Parents are desperate and the quality variation is extreme. We cover the full spectrum: residential programs, intensive outpatient, individual and family therapy, and psychiatric care for adolescents. Employers with dependent coverage are paying for these episodes and have zero visibility into whether the program worked. We measure it.

+
Perinatal Mental Health
Postpartum depression, anxiety, and beyond.

Specialized programs and therapists for postpartum and perinatal mental health conditions, including psychiatric medication management for pregnant and postpartum members. Growing awareness, growing spend, very few providers designed specifically for this population. We match to clinicians who specialize in this, not generalists.

I built these programs.
Then I got to see them from the other side.

I started with behavioral health practices over a decade ago. We were early to telehealth and grew into the state's largest online mental health practice in under two years. Along the way, we expanded into the hardest cases: substance use, medication-assisted therapy, intensive outpatient, crisis stabilization. That system grew to serve over 200,000 patients. 80%+ completion rates across residential programs. 90%+ IOP completion. Single-digit readmission.

I took it through acquisition by a national behavioral health company and stayed on as CEO, building what became GetWell Health System: behavioral health, primary care, urgent care, pain management, a lab, imaging, a surgical center, and a hospital.

Then I moved to the payer side. I manage specialty risk across six high-acuity clinical books at a top-five national payer. I see what works from inside the system that writes the checks. curated exists because I know which programs produce outcomes and which ones just produce invoices.

The wrong program isn't a clinical failure. It's a routing failure. And it's fixable.

You're already paying for these episodes through your carrier at full price with no outcome data. The PEPM replaces unmanaged spend with governed spend. The net is savings, not additional cost. Stop-loss premium reduction from outcome data is a second savings not modeled here.
Pilot guarantee.
Six months. One clinical area. If the data doesn't justify expansion, walk away. No penalty.
Stop-loss evidence.
OON BH spending has surged to 40% of SUD claims (commercial claims analysis, 2024-2025). Curated redirects episodes into bundled in-network pricing. Documented outcome data builds toward evidence that supports your stop-loss renewal.

Three structural gaps.
One governance platform.

Curated is part of a governance triad. Each product governs a different dimension of employer health plan spend. Each is structurally independent. Each produces a governance artifact. Together, they produce a Governance Portfolio no other employer can present at stop-loss renewal.
