Last week we had the pleasure of hosting an open house at our Nashville clinic! This event brought together Wellpoint Tennessee, providers, and community partners for an inside look at the impactful work we’re doing at Wayspring to support our members. Our guests had the chance to meet our incredible care team, tour the clinic, and hear inspiring member stories firsthand. It was a fantastic evening filled with connection and collaboration. We’re so thankful to everyone who joined us to celebrate and learn more about how we’re making a difference. #HealthcareCommunity #Nashville #MemberCare #SubstanceUseDisorder #Medicaid

Grateful for the opportunity to partner with organizations like The Next Door Recovery that share our commitment to breaking down barriers and supporting lasting recovery. Together, we can fill gaps in care and ensure everyone has the support they need on their journey.

Wayspring was pleased to join Wellpoint Tennessee at the 2024 Tennessee State of Reform Health Policy Conference last week. Wellpoint Tennessee’s Executive Director of Behavioral Health, Renea Bentley, EdD, LPC/MHSP, and Wayspring’s Market President, Sarah Mansouri, spoke on the “Building and Maintaining Behavioral Health Infrastructure” panel. They shared insights into how our partnership, anchored by Wayspring's care model, is advancing substance use disorder and behavioral health care across Tennessee. Together, we're committed to improving care and long-term outcomes for Tennesseans. #BehavioralHealth #SUDCare #Medicaid #TennesseeHealth #ValueBasedCare

Last week, we gathered for Wayspring's Annual Employee Summit and Operations Training— two fantastic opportunities to reflect on our achievements, connect in person, strengthen relationships, and collaboratively envision the year ahead!

This year's sessions were inspiring, covering topics like how AI works and its impact on healthcare, as well as other insights that guide our mission to transform lives in the substance use disorder space. Thank you to everyone who joined and contributed to these meaningful conversations. Here’s to another year of growth, innovation, and transforming lives together! #WayspringSummit #HealthcareInnovation #DreamTeam #BreakingBarriers #TeamDevelopment
