  • Title: Professional associations and managed care. How four provider groups are helping their members.
    Author: Stuart GW, Newman R, Kaplan L, Graham MD.
    Journal: Behav Healthc Tomorrow; 1997 Aug; 6(4):41-4, 85-91. PubMed ID: 10173097.
    Abstract:
    Managed care is facilitating rapid change in the day-to-day practice of many addiction treatment and mental health professionals. It is only natural, therefore, that the associations representing the various disciplines in behavioral healthcare should seek to present short- and long-term plans, advice, and programs for their members. We have asked leaders from four prominent groups to present what their organizations are doing today to assist professionals in adapting to the new realities of the healthcare system. The comments below are by no means conclusive, and are representative of a few efforts and thoughts. It is our mission at Behavioral Healthcare Tomorrow to provide an independent platform for dialogue in the world of mental health and addiction treatment. It is our hope that the proposals and ideas published here stimulate even more planning amongst providers as managed care assertively enters public sector services.
