TPN.health's Trevor Colhoun Appointed Payer Chair for BHOC26 Conference Focused on Behavioral Health Outcomes

TPN.health's Trevor Colhoun Appointed as Payer Chair for the Inaugural Behavioral Health Outcomes Conference
New Orleans, Louisiana – April 14, 2026
In a momentous announcement, TPN.health has revealed that CEO Trevor Colhoun will serve as the Payer Chair for the inaugural Behavioral Health Outcomes Conference (BHOC26), set to take place from September 8-10, 2026 in Dana Point, California. This pivotal event is being organized against a backdrop of increasing pressure on the behavioral health sector to demonstrate measurable positive outcomes and improve the coordination of mental health care services.

As behavioral health stands at a crossroads, Colhoun emphasizes that mere access to services is not enough. According to him, outcomes must become the central focus determining success in the field. "Access was a necessary first step in improving mental health care, but without a comprehensive alignment between payers, providers, and the care systems, it doesn't culminate in superior services," he stated. His leadership at the conference aims to foster discussions around creating infrastructures that endorse high-quality, measurable outcomes at scale.

As Payer Chair, Colhoun will be instrumental in shaping the agenda geared towards improving payer-provider collaboration, enhancing performance within networks, and establishing frameworks that favor outcomes-based reimbursement models. His appointment underlines the essential roles payers play in promoting accountability and standardization throughout behavioral health services.

The agenda of BHOC26 will confront significant obstacles to achieving outcomes-driven care, which include varying clinical standards, limited interoperability of data, and fragmented coordination of care. The conference intends to transcend theoretical discussions, fostering tangible solutions through expert roundtables and working sessions, aimed at practical implementation across organizations.

Colhoun remarked, “TPN.health’s role in uniting health plans with providers to efficiently amplify behavioral health outcomes is part of our daily mission. Supporting the BHOC26 provides a unique opportunity to gather national leaders from various sectors to co-create practical solutions that generate quantifiable improvements.”

TPN.health has made substantial strides in this domain, connecting over 115,000 verified providers through its cutting-edge human-led care navigation platform. This network not only aids health plans in assembling precise provider infrastructures but also addresses gaps in care and connects members to the appropriate services. This involvement places TPN.health in a unique position to influence and advance the outcome standards and reimbursement strategies that BHOC26 will target.
