HBGI asked providers how they would be paid on outcomes. TrustCircle answered.

The call for expressions of interest launched in summer 2022. Each program in the report shows how it could link payment to clear, measurable deliverables.

HBGI aims to raise $10 billion for better mental health outcomes.
