Psyomics, a leading provider of digital front door technology for mental health services, has partnered with Priory, the UK’s largest independent provider of mental health and adult social care services, to launch an innovative digital pathway aimed at streamlining mental health assessments.
This cutting-edge partnership will give adults aged 18–65 faster access to the right care, guided by expert analysis and personalised treatment recommendations.
Developed by clinical psychologists and psychiatrists in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, the Psyomics Platform addresses the challenges of inconsistent, time-consuming and costly mental health information capture from patients.
Grounded in evidence-based practices, it standardises how clinicians gather patient data, offering a comprehensive view of each patient’s mental health symptom and social context – ultimately freeing clinician time to enable faster, informed decisions and access to help.
By automating data capture, the platform eases administrative burdens and streamlines care. At the same time, it encourages patients to take a more proactive role in their care, while enabling clinicians to swiftly pinpoint the most suitable care pathways – delivering timely, effective support without unnecessary delays.
Rebekah Cresswell, Priory chief executive officer, said: “The Psyomics pathway is a patient centred and innovative piece of health technology. Many patients find it difficult to discuss sensitive information about their mental health, and sometimes have to do this more than once. We can now allow people who need our support to share information about their mental health with our healthcare professionals, in their own words, in their own time. We’re excited to be the first independent mental healthcare provider to partner with Psyomics, to help everyone who needs it to access the right care, in the way that works best for them.”
The Psyomics Platform collects data on mental health, social determinants, and personal factors, including suicidality, self-harm, family dynamics, and financial security. Clinicians at Priory review this data and determine the next steps and most appropriate clinical treatment pathway ensuring patients are matched with the right care promptly.
Key Features of the Psyomics Platform:
● User-Friendly and Accessible: The online questionnaire is easy to complete, with 25% of submissions occurring outside regular office hours (7 pm-7am).
● Data Collection: The platform gathers crucial information, helping clinicians make more informed decisions about care.
● Efficient Referral Process: By streamlining the referral process, Psyomics aims to reduce pre-appointment administration and eliminates the need for patients to repeatedly share their story.
This collaboration presents an exciting opportunity in a fast-growing sector, with increasing demand for innovative mental health solutions. By combining Priory’s clinical expertise with Psyomics’ cutting-edge technology, the companies are well-positioned to shape the future of mental health in the UK and beyond.
“Our partnership with Priory empowers individuals to share their experiences at their own pace, ensuring clinicians have the insights they need to deliver truly personalised care,” Dr. Melinda Rees, CEO of Psyomics, commented.
“By automating and standardising key parts of the information captured from patients we free up clinicians to focus on what really matters – providing high-quality, patient-centred treatment.”
