Fast-growing Pivotal Health, founded in 2020, announced this month it partnered with two companies that offer mental health resources online and in person across the country — Madison’s own startup DotCom Therapy and Arizona-based LifeStance Health.
Pivotal’s doctors are being trained with the help of a psychiatric expert to assess patients’ mental health concerns during in-home visits, and can refer people to one of the two companies based on therapy and medication needs.
Patients of Pivotal Health living in Dane, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Washington and Waukesha counties with varying types of health insurance, including Medicare and Medicaid, can take advantage of the partnerships. Out-of-pocket costs apply if a patient is not covered by a carrier, CEO Sal Braico said.
