The Next Big Thing in Health

How do we make sure no one has to suffer in silence? That mental well-being is considered just as important as physical health — and to drive down self-harm attempts?

AHIP’s very own Robert Traynham was joined by Cara McNulty, DPA, president, behavioral health & mental well-being, CVS Health, for a new episode of Conversations in Care.
