Strategic Integration for Growth and Innovation

Qualifacts’ VP of Innovation and Brightli’s Chief Strategy Officer share valuable insights on how to strategically integrate AI into behavioral health technology to drive growth and innovation.

Behavioral health agencies and care providers now have the opportunity to strategically integrate AI into their core technology and business models. Rather than relying on isolated tools, the latest advancements in AI for behavioral health focus on comprehensive technologies embedded within behavioral health EHRs. These solutions leverage the security, data interoperability, and common architecture of an organization’s existing tech stack.
