OpenBeds® of Florida

Thank you for your interest in utilizing Florida’s statewide behavioral health bed availability navigator sponsored by the Florida Department of Children and Families. Please contact us if you have any questions.

What is OpenBeds?

Behavioral Health Capacity Management and Referral Solution

Behavioral health referrals, typically consisting of multiple calls, faxes or emails, are time-consuming, inefficient and frustrating for both patients and providers.

OpenBeds replaces this manual and outdated process for providers by providing one application to refer, share and communicate bed availability. By providing real-time facility availability, two-way digital communication, data analytics and clinical decision support, OpenBeds helps providers get patients the care they need, sooner.

Key Benefits…

  • Real-Time Availability Dashboard
  • Filterable Treatment Services

Once received, we will present your application to the state for approval.

 

In accordance with HIPAA compliance, a BAA is part of our agreement, as there is the potential for personal health information to be shared. If your organization prefers to use its own BAA please send us a copy for review. We also have a process to review any red lines or proposed changes your organization would like us to consider to the Subscription Agreement.
