Health insurers are increasingly being measured for their ability to improve or maintain #mentalhealth.  With the growth of #accountable care organizations, the five star quality ratings, and the coming together of insurers, hospitals, physician groups, and senior care providers, it is important to note that health insurers have a key measurement from Medicare to improve or maintain mental health of patients. 

Organizations that want to meet the needs of health insurers will want to be sure they are keeping this on the radar. One great way to impact mental health is being using reminiscence therapy. LifeBio's approach for reminiscence therapy makes it possible to have patients share about their past memories and experiences. Not only is this good background knowledge (promoting listening between care providers and older adults -- to improve the patient experience), but it is also a great way to increase satisfaction with life, improve cognition, and build self esteem in patients. Whether it is just a few memory prompting questions or filling out a Life Story Guide (20 questions), using the person's life story to relate better is very effective.

LifeBio partners with senior care and health care to provide mental health solutions using reminiscence.  Someone's life story is one of the very best way to connect and improve communication and the patient experience.  We have an online way of gathering biographical data or Life Story Journals that can be used to learn more.  Group sessions or one-on-one visits are all possibilities.   Call 1-866-LIFEBIO or 937-303-4576 or email info@lifebio.com or visit....
