inMynd℠ — Every Mind Deserves Better
What is Evernorth?
inMynd is just one of the life-saving solutions from Evernorth, health services built on the recognition that health makes progress possible. Working together with health plans, employers, and government programs, we're solving the problems others don’t, won’t, or can’t.
It’s time to do better
There is a culture of silence and shame around mental health conditions that can lead to your members hesitating to reach out for help. That mentality can cause their mental and physical health to deteriorate, along with your business and your health plan.
Mental health conditions cause more days of lost work and drag productivity lower than many other chronic conditions, such as diabetes, asthma and arthritis. And patients dealing with a mental health condition are twice as likely to have a coexisting chronic condition.2
The use of some medications that help treat mental health conditions are also on the rise. According to an analysis of our patient data, antidepressant use increased 15% from 2015-2019.
We must act. And we must act fast.
