Assignment
Within the US health care system, Behavioral Health is one of the specialties that has a high demand with minimal supply. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for behavioral health care has continued to grow as people are isolated from their families, essential workers are working long hours, K-12 & college students are experiencing education in new ways and social distancing continues to become our new normal.
1. Research and discuss the supply & demand issues that were present in the behavioral health specialty prior to COVID-19. Discuss the challenges that independent behavioral health providers and/or group practices encounter when seeking to provide value to patients.
2. Discuss the COVID-19 pandemic. How have the public health steps taken to prevent the spread of the virus impacted the population in terms of behavioral health? What challenges does the pandemic present to independent behavioral health providers and/or group practices when seeking to provide quality care to patients?
3. There is growing concern that a major, long-lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will result in an increased demand for behavioral health services across the US. Research the current literature that discusses this concern. How can the behavioral health industry work toward meeting the supply needs that the increased demand will bring to our health system? What support will the health system need from state and/or federal funding & legislation in order to help meet the increased demand needs for behavioral health services? Be sure to specifically discuss how these changes should be directed toward independent or group practices.
