Virtual psycho-oncology behavioral health platform
Cerula Care is the first digital health company focused on providing integrated behavioral health (BH) services to people living with cancer. Cerula Care is the only collaborative care company co-founded by a psycho-oncologist — and our impact is backed by peer-reviewed evidence, including publications inClinical Cancer ResearchandASCO.
More than 22M people living with cancer have behavioral health needs such as anxiety, depression, and distress. 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. With program customized to our members, we will be able to improve our members’ behavioral health above and beyond traditional CoCM models.

1) What it does: Cerula Care provides virtual behavioral health services for cancer patients by partnering with oncology practices. It handles billing so practices gain a new revenue stream at no direct cost to them. 2) How it works: After an oncologist refers a patient, a virtual care team of psycho-oncologists, health coaches, and care managers assesses the patient, creates a personalized plan, and delivers counseling, coaching, symptom support, and medication management, with psychiatrists giving recommendations to oncologists. 3) How it stands out: It embeds behavioral health into oncology care, manages insurance reimbursement for partner practices, and uses a collaborative care model focused on psycho-oncology to reach the large unmet mental health need among cancer patients. 4) Goal: To improve cancer care outcomes by addressing mental health needs while helping oncology practices grow through a no-cost, revenue-generating collaboration.
