Cerula Care is the first digital health company focused on providing integrated behavioral health (BH) services to people living with cancer. More than 22M people living with cancer have behavioral health needs such as anxiety, depression, substance use disorder, and PTSD. We integrate with oncology practices and health systems through the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) to wrap our members with a behavioral health team, care programming, and outcomes analysis.

The Collaborative Care Model is an evidence-based clinical model that has been shown to successfully improve mild to moderate behavioral health needs more effectively than the current standard of care. Our care team enhances the traditional CoCM care team by adding a Health Coach (i.e., a health coach focused on holistic behavioral health), given our strong conviction in the benefit of health coaching and wellness in this population. With the right coaching program customized to our members, we will be able to improve our members' behavioral health above and beyond traditional CoCM models.
