“If mental health is not addressed, there can be no health.”
- John Zifferblatt, Chief Strategy Officer, West Health

Nearly 59 million U.S. adults experience mental illness each year, and about half don’t receive treatment. Bridging that gap requires a system that can deliver coordinated, accessible care.

Through our partnership with West Health, NCQA is advancing the integration of behavioral health into primary care, focusing on scalable, measurement-driven solutions that improve access, alignment and outcomes.
