Author: Institute of Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309175054
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
Managed care has produced dramatic changes in the treatment of mental health and substance abuse problems, known as behavioral health. Managing Managed Care offers an urgently needed assessment of managed care for behavioral health and a framework for purchasing, delivering, and ensuring the quality of behavioral health care. It presents the first objective analysis of the powerful multimillion-dollar accreditation industry and the key accrediting organizations. Managing Managed Care draws evidence-based conclusions about the effectiveness of behavioral health treatments and makes recommendations that address consumer protections, quality improvements, structure and financing, roles of public and private participants, inclusion of special populations, and ethical issues. The volume discusses trends in managed behavioral health care, highlighting the emerging role of the purchaser. The committee explores problems of overlap and fragmentation in the delivery of behavioral health care and discusses the issue of access, a special concern when private systems are restricted and public systems overburdened. Highly applicable to the larger health care system, this volume will be of particular interest to all stakeholders in behavioral healthâ€"federal and state policymakers, public and private purchasers, health care providers and administrators, consumers and consumer advocates, accrediting organizations, and health services researchers.

Medicaid Handbook: Interface with Behavioral Health Services
Author: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1794764070
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
This handbook is intended to provide the reader with a basic understanding of the Medicaid program. There is a specific emphasis on the interplay between Medicaid principles and behavioral health services. The goal is for the reader to navigate his or her state Medicaid program so that he or she can contribute meaningfully to policy conversations related to provision of behavioral health services to individuals who are eligible for Medicaid. Throughout this document, the term behavioral health encompasses both mental and substance use disorders. When a mental or substance use disorder is addressed singularly, the reference will be only to that disorder. Because each state's Medicaid program is different from all others and because Medicaid laws and policies are ever changing, this handbook cannot contemplate every permutation of program construction.

Reimbursement of Mental Health Services in Primary Care Settings
Author: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1794763562
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
Implementing these practical and largely achievable suggestions will improve access to timely and targeted mental health services in primary care settings. Program and clinical experts agree that the early prevention and treatment of mental disorders will result in decreases in individual suffering, family burden, and medical costs. This project provided an important opportunity to review policy and service-delivery change mechanisms aimed at improving the reimbursement of mental health services in primary care settings. By using knowledge from a variety of individuals and settings and combining empirical research with qualitative interviews and the Expert Forum proceedings, this project identified areas where Federal agencies, states, provider organizations, and commissioner associations can clarify, collaborate, educate, and provide support to improve the reimbursement of and access to mental health services in primary care settings.
