Trevor Colhoun on Fixing Behavioral Health’s Broken Infrastructure | Ep 1210
Descripción del Episodio
In this episode of The Digital Executive Podcast, host Brian Thomas speaks with Trevor Colhoun, Founder and CEO of TPN Health, a national clinician network and care navigation platform focused on improving the quality, accessibility, and accountability of behavioral healthcare. Drawing from personal experiences with a family member navigating addiction treatment, Trevor shares how he discovered just how fragmented and analog the behavioral health system remains, and why that realization inspired him to build a better infrastructure.
Trevor explains that one of the biggest barriers in behavioral healthcare isn’t just stigma or access, it’s the lack of a clear value proposition. Patients, providers, and payers often lack transparency around treatment paths, outcomes, and costs. TPN Health was designed to address this challenge by building a digital network that verifies and connects clinicians, providing real-time insight into provider availability, specialties, geographic reach, and credentials. By aggregating and digitizing this data, the platform helps bring much-needed transparency and connectivity to a historically disconnected market.
The conversation also explores the importance of clinical credibility and trust when introducing technology into sensitive areas like mental health and addiction care. Rather than prioritizing technology first, TPN Health focuses on building trusted relationships with providers while digitizing essential processes such as credentialing, education, and referral networks. Trevor emphasizes that while AI can help optimize operational workflows and connectivity, therapeutic care itself must remain human-centered.
Looking ahead, Trevor outlines a future where behavioral healthcare becomes more structured, data-driven, and accessible. By directly connecting providers, payers, and patients, and simplifying processes like credentialing, payment, and care navigation—TPN Health aims to reduce costs, improve provider compensation, and deliver better outcomes for patients. As the behavioral health crisis continues to grow, platforms like TPN Health could play a crucial role in transforming the system into a more transparent, efficient, and patient-focused ecosystem.

Blunt Force Trauma
By shows
Blunt Force Trauma is a new serialised investigation into the unsolved murder of Faithe Ely, from EchoSpace and host Troy Taylor (from award winning podcast Among The Missing). On March 28, 2021, Faith Ely was found lifeless on the side of a dark Oklahoma highway, her death quickly being ruled a hit and run. But the evidence doesn’t line up. The injuries don’t tell a clear story. And the more you dig, the harder it becomes to make sense of the official narrative. What should be a straightforward accident begins to feel anything but…
