RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., April 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A new study by health economists at nonprofit research institute RTI International adds to recent research demonstrating a lack of access to affordable mental health and substance use disorder treatment in the U.S.

Key Points:

Notably, physician assistants were reimbursed for office visits at an average amount 19% higher than psychiatrists and 23% higher than psychologists.
"Our findings echo recent surveys and secret shopper studies that show much greater dissatisfaction with, and lower access to, behavioral health providers than medical/surgical providers."
"RTI concluded that high out-of-network use for mental health and substance use treatment cannot be explained by a shortage of behavioral health providers," said Henry Harbin, M.D., senior advisor to The Bowman Family Foundation.
The report was commissioned by the Mental Health Treatment and Research Institute, a tax-exempt subsidiary of The Bowman Family Foundation.
