Beating the Blues US to be used in US Army research

Ultrasis, the provider of interactive health care services, is pleased to announce that its flagship product for the treatment of depression, Beating the Blues, is to be used as a key component in a five year research study within the US Army.

The trial, entitled STEPS UP, will be led by Colonel Charles Engel, MD, MPH of the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences and Deployment Health Clinical Center at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center ("WRNMMC") (formerly Walter Reed Army Medical Center) and partnering investigators Dr. Lisa Jaycox from RAND Corporation and Dr. Robert Bray from RTI International. Researchers from VA Boston Healthcare System, Boston University, and the University of Washington will also be collaborating.

STEPS UP will test the effectiveness of a systems-level approach to primary care recognition and management of post-traumatic stress disorder ("PTSD") and depression in the US military health system, with the overall aim of improving healthcare for service members with PTSD and/or depression.

Nigel Brabbins, CEO of Ultrasis, said:

"We are delighted to be working in partnership with the clinical specialists at WRNMMC to provide Beating the Blues as a key component of this ground breaking research. It is a testament to the clinical effectiveness of Beating the Blues that, following rigorous evaluation, researchers from the US Department of Defense have chosen to use it in this trial."

John Smith, Executive Director of Ultrasis, added:

"Ultrasis, and our partners at UPMC, are proud to be supporting this research project by helping to provide evidence-based treatment to serving military personnel and their families. We see this as a great opportunity to promote the benefits of Beating the Blues to the wider US healthcare market as well as offering a scalable solution to the many military bases in the USA."

shame it is for a trial over 5 years, no wonder the market is not moved by it.

Wellbeing training reduces Legal & General sickness absence
Pilot programme for line managers to be rolled out across workforce

A wellbeing pilot at Legal & General which focused on stress and mental health reduced sickness absence by 15 per cent, it has been revealed.

The insurance giant staged the pilot across two of its sites - Cardiff and Hove - between November 2010 and April 2011, testing three initiatives. These were training for line managers on handling cases of stress; an online programme for staff to monitor their health and raise awareness of pressure points; and additional preventative support for those suffering from low emotional wellbeing.

The initiatives registered a 15 per cent improvement in absence rates compared to the same period in 2009/10, saving the company an estimated 68,000 for the pilot group alone. Legal & General now intend to roll out the programme across its whole workforce.

Nicky Richards, HR Consultant for Legal & General, said: Our own internal wellbeing pilot has demonstrated that early intervention and wellbeing programmes can have a significant impact on absence rates in businesses. Our experiences highlight the importance of early intervention before people become unwell and the appropriate support in place to help people at work when they are ill.

Legal & General's figures show that 29 per cent of its absence is linked to mental health, the highest individual cause ahead of colds and flu (17 per cent) and musculo-skeletal problems (6 per cent).

The line manager training was provided by Stand to Reason, a service-user led organisation that aims to raise the profile and achieve equality for sufferers from mental ill health. Topics covered included how to spot the signs of mental health problems, clarification of the manager's role and responsibilities, and an outline of the information and support available.

Meanwhile, the online health programme consisted of a 15-20 minute questionnaire, completed in work time, which provided confidential information about lifestyle, and medial risks for the individual. The provider for this was GetFit Wellness.

Steve Russell, Director at GetFit Wellness, said: Health Manager, our online health and wellbeing programme, provided Legal & General with tangible insight into the health needs and opportunities of the pilot group enabling L&G to target areas of greatest need. In addition to improved workplace productivity, we saw a significant decrease in health-related absence during the pilot period, further supporting the case that well managed ill health prevention programmes make good business sense.

Ultrasis announces major new initiative in the Netherlands

Ultrasis, the provider of interactive health care services, is pleased to announce that its Dutch partner, Innohealth BV ("Innohealth"), has developed a joint venture with Medic Info, itself a joint venture between two of the Netherland's largest health insurers, CZ and VGZ, which, collectively, provide insurance to 7.6 million Dutch citizens.

This new company, to be named 'Psyhealth Direct', will offer Ultrasis' flagship product 'Beating the Blues' to treat anxiety and depression across its membership. The joint venture will be led by Henk Maasson, founder of Mentaal Beter, which is one of the largest private sector mental health care providers in the Netherlands. Mr. Maason also led on the initial partnership with Ultrasis to produce the Dutch version of Beating the Blues.

The development of this joint venture follows the Dutch government's decision to save EUR 600 million on mental health care expenditure.

Nigel Brabbins, CEO of Ultrasis, said:

"Psyhealth Direct will offer Dutch GPs and health insurers a much lower cost solution to treating depression and anxiety conditions than traditional face to face services. Over the past two years, Innohealth has validated the clinical and cost effectiveness of Beating the Blues in the Netherlands and this joint venture provides a direct route to market for the program.

"I fully expect that Dutch insurance companies will now be able to incentivise practitioners to use Beating the Blues as the treatment of first choice and therefore provide them with the cost savings they require to meet the Dutch government's objective."
