No Recent News on BetterHelp’s Quiet AI Expansion; Focus Remains on Insurance Growth
No search results confirm recent quiet expansion of AI use in BetterHelp; all coverage centers on Teladoc's $30M acquisition of UpLift in 2025 to enable insurance billing.123
BetterHelp insurance launched in select states (e.g., Virginia, Florida, Texas, NY, DC) post-UpLift, with plans for national coverage by end of 2026.456
BetterHelp faces declines:
4-5% drop in paying users, 8% revenue fall to $236.9M in Q3 2025, amid cash-pay market pressures.246
Teladoc views insurance as key to reviving BetterHelp growth, alongside international expansion and EAP like Wellbound.26
One Teladoc resource mentions AI for hyper-customized virtual care predictions in 2025, but not specific to BetterHelp or quiet rollout.8
