随着业绩指标和成果衡量标准成为开展业务的重要组成部分，精神卫生服务提供者正在制定和使用一些获取措施。其中一个使用频率越来越高的是服务渗透。然而，由于缺乏计算和报告服务渗透率的标准方法，很难对各项研究的渗透率进行比较。本文讨论了服务渗透的概念化和操作化。此外，它提出了一个探索性的，研究服务渗透使用的数据来自相同的人使用非常不同的数据源，这些数据是在评估期间收集的医疗补助管理的医疗保健系统在佛罗里达。本文对服务渗透率的使用和报告提出了建议。
As performance indicators and outcomes measures become essential parts of doing business, providers of mental health services are developing and using a number of access measures. One that is being used with increasing frequency is service penetration. However, the lack of standard methods for calculating and reporting service penetration has made the comparison of penetration rates across studies difficult. This article discusses the conceptualization and operationalization of service penetration. In addition, it presents an exploratory, study of service penetration using data from the same persons using very different data sources; these data were collected during an evaluation of a Medicaid managed care system in Florida. The article offers recommendations for the use and reporting of service penetration rates.
