Abstract
The $99 billion behavioral health industry has gone through dramatic changes during the last decade. Managed behavioral care systems have grown from covering 60 million people to covering over 170 million in the United States. At the same time, 23 states have received waivers from the federal government to transform Medicaid fee-for-service care into managed care delivery systems. This trend will spread to all 50 states and five territories of the United States. Over 2,000 federally funded community mental health centers are also embracing transforming information technologies.
