Our Referral Network for Providers, by Providers
The behavioral health industry is broken for providers and patients alike. Patients can't find quality providers, payers don't see clear return on investment, and you're not compensated fairly for the life-changing work you do. It's time for a better way - a TPN.health approach that puts providers first and respects your expertise.

Getting Started

- What’s a care navigator?
