Business Development

The business development team members at Methodist Family Health serve as liaisons and mobile assessors to referring providers.

Our team works to increase the understanding of Methodist Family Health’s services, thereby increasing referrals and allowing us to serve more families. All members of the business development team work with families and referral sources, arranging transportation when needed and responding to inquiries.

The team is made up of:
  • Community Liaisons, who work with providers across the state to deliver the highest level of customer service and help make the referral process to our inpatient programs a success. They are supported by the rest of the business development team and by Methodist Behavioral Hospital’s assessment and referral department for follow-up regarding referrals and admissions.
  • Mobile assessors, who are licensed professionals responsible for completing patients’ initial assessment to determine the appropriate level of care. These assessors conduct a clinical assessment and provide information to patients and their families in behavioral health crises. These team members also determine suitability of admission for the patient based on clinical criteria.
Collectively, the team works to build and establish Methodist Family Health’s referral network, to reach as many families as possible.
Located throughout the state, the team can be contacted for help at any time.
