Description

Rosanna M. Coffey. An estimated 28% of the adult U.S. population will suffer from a mental health or substance abuse (MH/SA) disorder, including alcohol or drug abuse problem, during the course of a year. This report addresses the following key questions: How much is spent in the U.S. to treat MS/SA disorders? How are the expenditures distributed by payer & provider type? How has spending changed from 1987 to 1997? How do MH/SA expenditures compare to those for all U.S. health care? This work is based primarily on nationally representative databases with multiple years of data, which generally cover the study period of 1987 to 1997. Charts & tables. Also includes a 35-page GAO report, “Mental Health: Community-Based Care Increaes for People with Serious Mental Illness” (Dec. 2000).
