Solera Health Launches Intervention-Based Behavioral Health Network to Expand Whole-Person Care
New network debuts with industry leaders Calm Health and Lyra Health on board to deliver behavioral health support
PHOENIX, Feb. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Solera Health, the premier digital health delivery company creating flexible solutions to seamlessly connect people to on-benefit care via health plans and employers, today announced the launch of its new Behavioral Health network. The network offers an intervention-based, whole-person approach designed to expand access, improve outcomes, and meet growing demand for behavioral and mental health support.
The need for expanded access is urgent: in 2024, approximately 62 million U.S. adults experienced a mental illness, yet nearly half did not receive treatment. This offering broadens Solera’s focus beyond traditional mental health to a comprehensive behavioral health model that recognizes the close connection between behaviors, emotional well-being, and physical health. Health plan members and employees can access the right level of support based on their individual goals and needs – from wellness and self-guided resources to virtual coaching, and future clinical care with a licensed provider.
“Behavioral health is central to whole-person care and a key driver of improved health outcomes, lower total costs of care, and improved employee productivity and work satisfaction,” said Dr. Mohammed Saeed, Solera Health’s chief medical officer. “The growing prevalence of behavioral health needs, combined with significant access challenges in traditional care settings, makes this network expansion critical. Our approach meets members where they are on their care journey and guides them to the most appropriate level of support. This creates a more flexible pathway to care that improves access to care and positions Solera to continue expanding across the full continuum of care.”
A More Holistic Behavioral Health Model
As demand for behavioral health services continues to rise, Solera’s transition from a mental health network to a behavioral health network reflects a broader, whole-person approach to care. While mental health traditionally focuses on emotional and psychological conditions like anxiety and depression, behavioral health also addresses the habits, experiences, and lifestyle factors – including stress, sleep, and daily routines – that influence both physical health and long-term outcomes.
By adopting a behavioral health framework, Solera supports integrated care rather than siloed treatment to enable:
-
A broader spectrum of care, from wellness and education to condition management and future clinical services
-
Improved support for comorbidities that often accompany chronic conditions
-
Expanded access through digital, alternative sites of care that complement traditional brick-and-mortar services
