AB  - "The U.S. health care system is the most expensive in the world by a considerable margin, yet health indicators are among the worst in the developed world. This comprehensive volume by the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry's Mental Health Services Committee examines the factors that have contributed to this disparity and offers a holistic vision for health care reform-one in which the psychiatric profession plays a pivotal role. From cost consciousness in the prescribing of medications and forming alliances with other health professionals to rethinking the way health care is financed and efforts to eliminate counterproductive incarceration practices, this guide outlines individual, systemic, and sociopolitical interventions that will position readers to effect substantive change both in the short and the long term.
