Inflexxion Partners with Los Angeles County Department of Public Health


Newton, MA, Oct 17, 2011 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- Inflexxion, the leader in creating scientifically validated solutions for critical areas of health care, announces that Los Angeles County, the largest county in the United States, is using Inflexxion's Addiction Severity Index-Multimedia Version (ASI-MV(R)), an online behavioral health assessment program, in its Community Assessment Service Centers (CASC) which will process over 9,000 newly released prison inmates over the next year and nearly 30,000 over the next three years.



With many of the newly released prison inmates in need of assistance as they re-enter into the LA community, the LA County Substance Abuse Prevention and Control (SAPC) division of the LA Department of Public Health, is implementing the ASI-MV to streamline assessment procedures, expedite treatment planning and simplify data gathering and analysis. LA County SAPC joins the growing number of organizations using the ASI-MV which currently includes over 700 adult and 120 adolescent behavioral health treatment centers in 39 states across the country.

"We are very excited to partner with LA County SAPC and equip the CASC assessors with the ASI-MV and the Analytics Data Center, providing the County with powerful tools and resources, which will enable them to effectively analyze behavioral health data within the community," says Mike Waldron, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Inflexxion. "ASI-MV provides LA County SAPC with the most advanced tools for behavioral health assessment processes and we look forward to working closely with them and providing continued support, clinical consultation and customization." ASI-MV is easily accessible from any Internet-connected computer and offers easy implementation and no software installation is required. ASI-MV expedites and enhances treatment planning with clinical reports and data easily accessible at any time, from any computer.
