Behavioral Health Division: UHS is the largest facility-based behavioral health provider in the United States, providing patients and their families with specialized care. Since UHS entered the behavioral health industry in 1983, the number of individuals treated has grown significantly as the platform has expanded. Today, UHS treats more than 700,000 behavioral health patients annually.
The behavioral health footprint spans 40 states, the United Kingdom, and Puerto Rico with over 300 facilities. Healthcare institutions of all sizes and affiliations are experiencing a significant rise in demand for behavioral health services and are looking for new care delivery models and population health initiatives to better integrate physical and mental health care. Because the demand for behavioral health services is likely to continue to exceed capacity, improving integration of care will be vital to meeting the growing need for services.
UHS, with its clinical resources and geographic reach, is well positioned to develop mutually beneficial partnerships with other healthcare systems to provide high quality, cost-effective behavioral healthcare that is clinically integrated, outcomes driven and delivers measurable value to patients and the healthcare system as a whole.
