Strategies to Improve Access to Behavioral Health Care Services through Medicare and Medicaid

Completed

Topics

This National Academies committee will examine the current challenges accessing behavioral health care services due to limited behavioral health practitioner participation in Medicare, Medicaid, and Marketplace insurance programs. The committee will consider current perceptions and administrative processes that hinder practitioner participation, as well as the infrastructure requirements needed for accessible and quality behavioral health integration. The report will provide recommendations and innovative strategies to increase behavioral health workforce participation in these programs.
