pubmed:abstractText
People with chronic mental illness present complex challenges for the design of health care financing reforms. In this position statement from the committee on psychiatry and community of the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry, the authors describe chronic and severe mental illnesses as psychiatric illnesses that require acute and ongoing psychiatric assessment and treatment, as chronic medical diseases that require ongoing rehabilitative services, and as persistent disabilities that need ongoing supportive care and social services. Any proposal for health care reform must ensure parity of chronic psychiatric illnesses with other psychiatric conditions. It must also reimburse psychiatric rehabilitation at parity with other medical rehabilitation and provide equal access to and reimbursement for broad ancillary health services that reduce costs and improve quality of life.
