Alma as a Therapeutic Home
The center of a seamless ecosystem for members, providers, and partners.
What if therapists acted as primary care providers—someone who truly knows a member’s history and can guide them through each stage of their mental health journey?
At Alma, we’re defining that experience. Our network of licensed, outcomes-oriented providers acts as each member’s therapeutic home—a trusted anchor for care continuity, collaboration, and results.
Through Alma’s tech-enabled platform, providers can deliver high-quality, personalized therapy supported by:
- A connected, diverse network. Our network creates seamless pathways to all forms of care from starting therapy, to pausing or pursuing specialized treatment or higher levels of care.
- Smart tools that strengthen relationships and outcomes. Members can find their ideal provider fit with AI-assisted matching, and providers are supported with real-time guidance, AI-powered documentation, and an FHIR-standard scheduling API for speed and scalability.
- Proven outcomes with expert guided care. Supported by data-driven technology and clinical best practices, members see improvements within 6 months.
“I love how easy it is for members to find the providers they need, whether it’s through the directory or online scheduling, as well as the support [provided] to members. I know my employer clients are dying to have [Alma] in the network as quickly as possible."
“Alma's a great partner and I include Alma in all of my sales meetings. The Care Connect program is a real advantage for Optum. It’s what employers are asking for—it’s what they want.”
“What Alma does is exactly what your website suggests: it makes insurance easy for you as a practitioner and your clients. Without organizations like Alma, we would have a lot more providers who were not willing to take insurance and instead were taking cash.”

Alma’s Approach to Network Adequacy
In this white paper, we explore how increases in telemedicine and EHR adoption could lead to better measurement network adequacy, and how this approach could be used to evolve networks through data-driven investments, and improve access to quality care.
Friction-reducing Smart tools
Cost-efficient. Scalable and streamlined. Deeply integrated.
Payer Tools
Removing barriers to care
Integrated EAP workflows eliminate the need for authorization codes. Built-in scheduling and payment tools cut down on unnecessary back-and-forth, improving first-call resolution rates.
Provider Tools
Tools that enhance provider efficiency
With Alma, providers spend more time with members and less on admin. Our industry-leading EHR platform is the gold standard for EHR operations for measurement informed care.

AI-assisted matching helps members find their ideal provider sooner. On average, individuals begin care within three days of a consultation request, instead of waiting weeks.
