在医疗改革中整合服务和融资的努力有利于为农村精神病人提供服务。偏远地区面临着特殊的挑战,因为美国农村的独特特征更加明显。偏远农村地区的管理式医疗模式将不同于城市及其邻近农村地区使用的模式。全民覆盖将消除该人群获得护理的障碍,但并不能保证农村地区有足够的精神卫生服务或提供者。介绍了当前农村精神卫生服务的特点,并概述了医疗改革下扩大服务范围的障碍。
Efforts to integrate services and financing under health care reform hold benefits for provision of services to rural mentally ill persons. Remote areas pose a particular challenge as the unique characteristics of rural America are even more evident. The model for managed care in remote rural areas will differ from those used in urban and their adjacent rural areas. Universal coverage would remove the barriers to accessing care for this population, but does not assure availability of adequate mental health services or providers in rural areas. Characteristics of currently available rural mental health services are presented and obstacles to expanded delivery under health care reform are outlined.
