INDIANAPOLIS—Olio, a care coordination platform for post-acute and behavioral health, announced it is hosting a Care Coordination Engagement Summit to tackle what Olio says is one of health care's most pressing challenges: coordinating care across the continuum.
"With an aging population and rising acuity levels, the global advisory firm EY projects post-acute volume will increase 31% between 2025-2035—by far the highest growth of any care setting and roughly double the population growth rate," Olio said. "Meanwhile, behavioral health faces a parallel crisis: nearly 48% of adults with mental illness did not receive treatment in 2024, according to SAMHSA [Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration], a federal health agency."
Olio is gathering senior executives from major payers, post-acute networks, behavioral health organizations and health systems to explore:
- Breakthrough approaches already working in select markets
- Integration points that unlock systemic improvement
- What drives effective coordination across care teams and organizations
- Technology and process innovations that align competing priorities across the continuum
"Care coordination is becoming one of health care's most critical challenges, and no single organization can solve it alone," said Ben Forrest, CEO of Olio. "This summit brings together leaders who live these challenges every day—from different vantage points across the system. Our goal is to identify what actually works to improve transitions, strengthen outcomes and reduce costs."
Following the summit, Olio said it will make findings available in an industry report identifying what's delivering results in care coordination in select markets today to serve as a catalyst for payers, health systems, post-acute and behavioral health providers to build more effective care coordination capabilities.
