In a time when the mental health of our nation is at the forefront of discussions, the U.S. Senate has taken a monumental step by launching the Bipartisan Senate Mental Health Caucus. Clinicom, a pioneer in behavioral health technology, wholeheartedly celebrates this initiative and extends its gratitude to the senators championing this cause.
A Collective Commitment to Mental Health
The Bipartisan Senate Mental Health Caucus, with its diverse representation, stands as a testament to the importance of mental health in today's society. The caucus, founded by an impressive roster of senators including Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA), Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC), Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) and Sen. Tina Smith (D-MN), aims to bring mental health to the forefront of legislative discussions.

Why This Matters Now More Than Ever
The challenges faced by mental health professionals and patients are multifaceted. From ensuring access to care to navigating the complexities of diagnoses and treatments, the mental health landscape is in dire need of innovative solutions. The Senate Mental Health Caucus's commitment to these challenges aligns seamlessly with Clinicom's mission.
Clinicom CEO Ignacio Handal shared his thoughts on the new senate initiative, “I am deeply honored and excited about the formation of the Bipartisan Senate Mental Health Caucus. This initiative underscores the critical importance of mental health in our nation. At Clinicom, we've dedicated years to developing a platform that can truly make a difference in the lives of millions. I wholeheartedly believe that with the combined efforts of dedicated leaders and innovative solutions like Clinicom, we can address and overcome the pressing mental health challenges facing our country. I extend an open invitation to the Senate Mental Health Caucus to explore how Clinicom can be an instrumental tool in this endeavor. Together, we can usher in a new era of mental health care that is accessible, efficient, and truly patient-centered.”
The statistics are clear: in 2021, more than one-third of those with serious mental illness did not receive any form of mental health care. This gap in care is alarming and underscores the urgency of the situation. With the combined efforts of the Senate Mental Health Caucus and technological solutions like Clinicom, we can bridge this gap.
