SUMMARY:CBHL Leadership Community | Supporting the Uptake of Behavioral Health Apps and Technology  
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, June 6\, 202411:00 am PT / 12:00 pm MT / 1:00 pm CT / 2:00 pm ETEvent length: 75 minutes \n\n\n\n\nRegister Now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFirst Session Theme: Conducting an analysis to assess how technology can support treatment needs\n\n\n\nAre you grappling with how to address unmet or undermet needs among specific population groups in your community or organization?  \n\n\n\nHave you considered the possibility of integrating behavioral health apps or new technologies into services?   \n\n\n\nDo you feel stuck by how to choose the right technology\, or how to implement successfully?    \n\n\n\nThe increasing demand for behavioral health services\, coupled with challenges in the workforce\, creates a compelling reason to take a closer look at forward-thinking solutions.  Behavioral health apps and other technologies have the potential to supplement existing services by increasing access and engagement among specific communities or population groups.    \n\n\n\nThis quarterly CBHL Leadership Community series is designed for any CBHL member interested in the successful integration of behavioral health apps and technology as a complement to existing practices. You are encouraged to register and join the full series.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGuest Subject Matter Expert:  Tim Andrews\, Founding President and Chief Commercial Officer\, ORCHA \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTim is an innovative entrepreneur with an extensive background in technology and outsourcing in both the public and private sectors. Tim has focussed on the health and social care environment for the past 10 years and co-founded ORCHA based on his passionate belief in the opportunity that Digital Health offered this exciting but challenging landscape. \n\n\n\nA lawyer by background\, Tim specialised in technology and commercial law and became an expert in the emerging dot.com and ecommerce environment. He moved from private practice and took on a number of General Counsel and Commercial Director roles in technology and outsourcing businesses\, developing some of the most ground breaking and sophisticated contracts in both the public and private spheres during that time. \n\n\n\nTim moved into Healthcare in the commissioning space\, initially supporting many NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups and fledgling NHS Commissioning Support Units   (CSU’s) before taking on the role of Managing Director of a CSU for a period. He co-founded ORCHA and has been responsible for all aspects of the various ORCHA assessments since its inception.  \n\n\n\nTim has supported the development and delivery of Digital Health assessment and accreditation models and approaches for a wide array of pan-national\, national and regional bodies and is a recognised authority on these approaches.  He also has pioneered much of ORCHA’s work in the UK and internationally that is focused on driving the wider adoption and use of digital health technologies amongst health and care bodies. \n\n\n\nAbout ORCHA: The Organisation for the Review of Health and Care Apps (ORCHA) is the world’s leading digital health quality management and distribution platform\, featuring the core infrastructure needed to deliver digital health safely in healthcare services at scale.        \n\n\n\nAs passionate advocates for digital health\, we recognise that it underpins the future of a more patient-centred and sustainable healthcare service.

Participants explored challenges faced by organizations in determining how to select the right technology\, considerations for how to implement as a complement to existing services\, and additional support members might need to feel more informed and better equipped to successfully integrate behavioral health apps and technology into existing practices.   \n\n\n\n\nWhat is a CBHL Leadership Community?  \n\n\n\nCBHL Leadership Communities connect leaders\, organizations\, and systems eager to learn and work across sectors in pursuit of a shared goal.  \n\n\n\nWhat is the purpose of a CBHL Leadership Community? \n\n\n\nCBHL leadership communities are created based on member interest with a focus on a specific topic or leadership population. They are recurring over a specific period of time and open to all CBHL members.  \n\n\n\n\nTo improve knowledge and skills of behavioral health leaders through collaboration\, the exchange of ideas\, and professional dialogue. \n\n\n\nTo facilitate informed and collaborative leadership for improved individual\, organizational\, and community outcomes.\n\n\n\nEncourage organic connections among CBHL members through ongoing collaboration around a shared interest. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLeadership Community Hosts\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Gastfriend is an addiction psychiatrist.
