Abstract
Community psychiatry must practice methods of population health to value the health of everyone. While still important, individual appointments will never be enough to serve those in need. More efficient and effective ways to deliver mental health outcomes for groups of people exist at different levels of care: for individual clinicians, healthcare systems, public health systems, and public policy addressing social determinants of health. Tackling social determinants, like poverty, would not only improve the mental health of many; it would also help prevent future mental health disorders. Shifts in psychiatric training, culture and care practices, and mental health reimbursement would support the shift to population health and improve mental health for all.
