Making Behavioral Healthcare Easy

Athra Systems, a veteran-owned leader in behavioral healthcare, combines 100+ years of expertise with strategic, data-driven solutions. With top-tier providers, flexible care models, and seamless integration, we optimize operations, elevate patient outcomes, and empower facility success.

Houston, TX — April 1, 2025 — Nutex Health Inc. a national leader in innovative, patient-centered healthcare, has announced a transformative partnership with Athra, a rapidly expanding behavioral health provider. This strategic collaboration is set to revolutionize how patients access psychiatric care by integrating behavioral health services directly into selected hospitals in Nutex Health’s network of micro-hospitals and Hospital Outpatient Departments (HOPDs) across the country.

Through this partnership, patients will now be able to receive treatment for psychiatric and mental health conditions in tandem with their acute medical care—bridging a critical gap in the healthcare continuum. This merger of worlds not only enhances whole-person care but also fills long-standing service voids for psychiatric hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and medically complex patients.

This model allows patients to continue psychiatric care seamlessly while being treated for co-occurring medical conditions, reducing the need for transfers or fragmented care. It also supports psychiatric hospitals that need access to medical services for their patients and provides nursing homes and long-term care settings with more robust, coordinated psychiatric support.

Athra’s services include in-person and telepsychiatric evaluations, medication management, crisis intervention, and long-term behavioral care planning—all tailored to fit the operational needs of each facility. Their team of licensed professionals work side by side with Nutex Health’s clinical staff to deliver timely and effective care.

“We’re honored to partner with Nutex Health to deliver integrated, compassionate behavioral health services that support not just the patient—but the entire care team,” said CEO and Managing Partner, Andrew Hardin, at Athra. “This partnership redefines access and continuity of psychiatric care, especially for vulnerable populations and under-resourced facilities.”

The partnership rollout will begin in select markets in 2025, with a broader national expansion expected shortly after.
