ACI Specialty Benefits: Powered by People, Not Bots

If popular hashtags like #breakthestigma and #mentalhealthmatters are any indicator, the world is waking up to the magnitude of modern mental health issues and the importance of getting professional help.

Suicide is now the second leading cause of death for people between the ages of 15 and 24, and overdoses are the number one killer of Americans younger than 50.

In the face of such challenges, a booming digital health industry is promising solutions. ACI’s SVP of Marketing/IT, Tim Mutrie, asks the important question, “Is digital health the future of therapy?”
