What You Should Know:

  • Today, Talkspace, a leading online behavioral health company, and Wheel, the foremost virtual care platform powering the next generation of virtual healthcare, announced they will partner to offer patients access to board-certified general practitioners and licensed behavioral health providers across the U.S. – conveniently and virtually.
  • In particular, the partnership will provide Talkspace and Wheel clients, including employers, payers, life sciences companies, and more with a single solution to more effectively screen for, and support, patients holistically addressing a wide range of needs, from general wellness to mental health.

Revolutionizing Access to Healthcare: The Talkspace-Wheel Partnership

In certain states, there remains a significant limitation in accessing healthcare professionals. Adding to this challenge are persistently long wait times for therapy and psychiatric services. Over 160 million Americans live in areas lacking sufficient mental health resources, with over 30 million residing in healthcare deserts, where accessible physicians are scarce. The collaboration between Talkspace and Wheel marks a crucial step towards ensuring quality care for all Americans.

This strategic partnership between Talkspace and Wheel offers a unified, scalable, and cost-effective solution for virtual care delivery. Patients can now swiftly connect with a clinician through Wheel’s platform and be matched with a dedicated, licensed therapist via Talkspace’s platform, all from one central location. This integration provides enhanced access, convenience, and flexibility for individuals seeking care.

“We recognize that today’s employers cater to dynamic and diverse workforces, including remote workers or employees who may not live in healthcare epicenters,” said Natalie Cummins, Chief Business Officer at Talkspace. “Together with Wheel, we offer organizations true whole-person virtual care and, more importantly, peace of mind that their employees and students have convenient access to high-quality healthcare.”
