pubmed:abstractText |
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.
