Cheryl McClatchey is the Vice President of Behavioral Health for BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee. She is responsible for management and oversight of the behavioral health product line for all lines of business including the BlueCare Tennessee state government business and the BCBST commercial business. Additionally, she is responsible for developing medical-behavioral integration strategies and appropriate coordination between behavioral health and medical products. McClatchey led BlueCare’s efforts to address the issues of substance use disorders and opioid misuse. Efforts included collaboration with community health providers to bring the Mothers and Infants Sober Together program to a rural Appalachian community, where a large percentage of babies have been born with neonatal abstinence syndrome. This program provided integrated substance abuse services at the rural health clinic. This effort led to the plans for a regional detox center for women addicted to Rx drugs housed at the local hospital. Prior to joining BlueCare Tennessee in 2009, McClatchey spent 23 years in behavioral health positions with various organizations as a clinician, executive and entrepreneur. She earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Buena Vista College in Iowa and a master’s degree in clinical psychology from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
