作者概述了私有化,精神卫生政策的一个主要趋势,特别关注私立精神病医院所有权的大幅增长和变化的原因和后果;所有非联邦精神病住院床位在私立设施中的比例从1970年的不到10%增加到今天的35%。据估计,在1970年至1986年期间,美国非联邦精神病住院床位中由公司营利赞助的比例从约1%增加到15%。作者区分和检查私有化的几个方面,并评估这些变化对精神病学和公共政策和研究的影响。
The authors provide an overview of privatization, a major trend in mental health policy, focusing in particular on the reasons for and consequences of substantial growth and change in ownership of private psychiatric hospitals; the proportion of all nonfederal psychiatric inpatient beds in private facilities has increased from less than 10% in 1970 to 35% today. It is estimated that between 1970 and 1986, the proportion of total nonfederal psychiatric inpatient beds in the United States that were under corporate for-profit auspices increased from about 1% to 15%. The authors distinguish and examine several aspects of privatization and assess the implications of these changes for psychiatry and for public policy and research.
