State of Mental Health Services in the Time of Pandemic
May 5, 2021
The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) investigated the state of mental and behavioral health services during the COVID–19 pandemic restrictions. While there have already been long-standing concerns about the parity of mental/behavioral and somatic services adopted by insurers, the current situation highlighted declining access to mental health. The federal data review yielded conclusions that attribute lack of services to lack of available qualified practitioners, particularly in low-income areas, as well as issues with provider reimbursement rates. Oregon is one of the states having problems with meeting the need for behavioral health.
