"What's unique about our model is that we are delivering a hybrid care model that is agnostic of whether services are delivered in person or through telemedicine. We have built a platform that allows patients to seek care in whatever setting is most comfortable to them and that helps to lower the barrier to care," Qureshi said. "It's important to increase access to mental health care services for everyone who needs it in the country."
