Their work is driven by our guiding principle of improving behavior to improve health with clinically appropriate and cost-effective solutions that advocate and promote good behavioral health, as well as help proactively manage wellness and disease. ValueOptions is a wholly-owned subsidiary of FHC Health Systems, Inc. (FHC). FHC, a privately-held company, was founded in 1983 by psychiatrist Dr. Ronald I. Dozoretz, to provide quality behavioral health services. In 1983, psychiatrist Ronald I. Dozoretz, M.D., founded OPTIONS Health Care, one of the first managed behavioral health care companies in America. With a focus on treatment innovation, OPTIONS quickly became the industry leader in the public marketplace, creating customized mental health and substance abuse programs for federal, state and local Medicaid populations. In 1998, OPTIONS merged with Value Behavioral Health, at the time a national leader in the commercial marketplace, providing behavioral health services to a significant portion of the Fortune 500, as well as national and regional health plans. This merger created ValueOptions®, a $1 billion company that continues to grow across all sectors of the behavioral health care industry. Today, as one of the nation's largest behavioral health care companies, ValueOptions® serves more than 23 million people across the country through publicly funded and commercial contracts, with a wide variety of managed behavioral health care services. ValueOptions® remains devoted to ensuring that those entrusted to our care receive the best behavioral health services possible.
